Living Passionately for God's Glory- Fear vs Love
There are so many different motives that cause us to live the way we do, to choose the way we do. Some have said that we only truly experience 2 motivators and everything else springs from those- fear and love. When we live from fear, when fear is our primary motivator, we run from God and toward idols. When we have no relationship with God, even if we were to come close to him we would be afraid and we would draw away from him. God, in his immense and inexplicable love for us, calls us to himself and empowers us to not live in fear. God commands us to not fear- and he upholds us with his great works and presence to live in love!
