From "The Joy of Fearing God" by Jerry Bridges, Chapter 8

If you are reading this on Facebook, click on the link "See Original Post" to see the entire post.

 Here are some highlights I came across in Chapter 8 of this book.  I was reading it for our lady's book study.
  •  we're responsible to grow in fearing God
  • "Give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name." Ps. 86:11b
  • After prayer...regular, consistent exposure of our minds & hearts to His Word...invovles reading it, hearing it taught & studying it for ourselves
  • These questions are helpful to ask as we hear God's Word taught:   Who are you, Lord?  What shall I do, Lord?     
I have really enjoyed reading this book.  It is very challenging.
