Friendship with god

Fear and friendship. Those words normally don’t go together. How can the Lord be a friend “to those who fear him”? Doesn’t fear cause us to run away? Isn’t friendship for those who stay close?

“Fear” and “friendship.” Those words normally don’t go together. How can the “friendship of the Lord” be for those who “fear him”? Doesn’t fear cause us to run away? Isn’t friendship for those who hang close?

The great promises of God are found throughout Scripture from the Old Testament to the New. And…so many of the promises are found in the beautiful poetry of the psalms. Today’s psalm promises that we are friends with God.
