Reflection: The Fear of the Lord
by Marjorie Dobson
Reflection: The Fear of the Lord ‘The beginning of wisdom is fear of the Lord?’ Doesn’t sound to me like the foundation for a good relationship. Unless you’re getting ‘wised up’ to the fact that the Boss is in charge and you’d better behave yourself, or else! But that won’t make
