"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure."

"Reverence is profound respect and love. A reverent attitude toward God includes honoring Him, expressing gratitude to Him, and obeying His commandments...Reverent
behavior includes prayer, scripture study, fasting, and payment of
tithes and offerings. It includes having wholesome thoughts, wearing
modest clothing, and using clean, wholesome language. The depth of a
person's reverence is evident in his or her choice of music and other
entertainment, in the way sacred subjects are spoken of, and in the way
the person dresses and acts when attending church services and
worshiping in the temple. Reverence also includes making righteous
choices even when no one is watching. Reverence for the Lord leads to
serving other people and treating them with kindness and respect."

What an amazing quote! You really live by this too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful definition of Reverencing God! I especially like how it says it includes making righteous choices even when no one is watching. I think sometimes the good choices we make are based on the fact that we know certain people will be present. It's good if people's presence influence you to do good, but we need to make sure we're doing it for the right reasons. What a good quote!
