But do we really want to live at the beginning of anything. Do we not want to grow, to flourish to love the Lord with all our hearts; our neighbors as ourselves. After all Jesus did say that love fulfils all the law. That doesn't mean the law is ignored, it means that by loving each other, we've done all that Jesus commanded us to do. So let's look beyond the beginning of wisdom toward its completion.
2 Timothy 1:7
[SUP]7 [/SUP]For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.
1 John 4:
[SUP]13 [/SUP]This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. [SUP]14 [/SUP]And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. [SUP]15 [/SUP]If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. [SUP]16 [/SUP]And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. [SUP]17 [/SUP]This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. [SUP]18 [/SUP]There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
Be not afraid said Jesus...He goes before us always. Our God is a God of love and mercy; the entire Bible leads towards that. In the end we have nothing to be afraid of, in fact, he will nestle us in His arms
