Summary: We're used to seeing fear as a negative thing, but the Bible teaches us that "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom" (Proverbs 1:7). When we fail to have a healthy fear of God, it usually results in us being disobedient to Him. But the more we get to know Him, the more we come to fear Him -- not in a bad way, but with all the awe and respect He deserves.
