Proverbs 8:13 The fear of the Lord is hatred of evil........ fear in this verse doesn't mean; panic, terror, dismay. It means RESPECT. God said I haven't given you the spirit of fear(2 Timothy 1:7) am not saying the writer was wrong with his choice of words neither am I saying the verse is incorrect but rather we have great amount of access to God than they do. Respect God in all you do-what you don't respect you don't attract. Amen
