Understanding The Fear Of The Lord - Proverbs 2:1-5

The fear of the Lord is the oil that keeps burning the lamp of hope. The heart that fears the Lord is the heart that trust in God's steadfast love. Understanding how this relationship between the fear of the Lord and hope in the Lord works is encouraging to the Christian. For the one who fears the Lord is the one who treasures the Lord, and the one who treasures the Lord, hopes deeply in the Lord.
