I'm not really sure how I feel.  I think, if I actually met 
God face to face, I'd feel guilty of what I did in my life 
time, but, at the same time I'd feel over joyed to actually 
meet him face to face.  When I was about eight, a friend of 
mine and I used to play that we were in heaven and that we 
followed Jesus like puppies and we never left his side.  I'd 
love to do that for real.

Yes, sometimes I get scared of Mr. God. this is me and not 
him, I
know but sometimes I just can't seem to help that. i get 
scared that
Mr. God gets mad at me and wants to throw me out when I fell 
short
again. And I do so often. I know that is rubbish and that 
Mr.God
really loves me and is a big hopper over anyone who he can 
adopt if
we only let him but the "youve been bad you can't be loved" 
echoes
big time in me sometimes when I lose focus from mr. God and 
that is
when I really sstrugle.

On a much larger scale, i'm afraid of God in the sense that 
he
absolutely awes me because he's just beyond comprehension in 
his
knowledge and love and power and wisdom and presence and 
extending
from the no beginning to the no end that he is really beyond 
words
and behond anything the human mind or at least mine can even 
begin to
comprehend and yet he cares enough to want fellowship with 
each of us
even though he doesn't have to because he has perfect 
fellowship in
himself with Jesus and Ruach and they have perfection in 
themselves
but they don't when they get me yet they want me and 
everyone of us
and also those who don't know them and that is just 
incredible and
awesome. maybe this is "fear of the lord" or maybe that's 
just a
churchy term. i am not scared of mr God with that but it 
makes me
just feel very little and very humble that he cares and 
bothers. "why
would the father bother?" <g>

We have such a wonderful God and I want to get to know him 
for real
and sometimes I wonder what it would be like to just really 
be with
him like with a daddy but my idea of "daddies' is limited to 
daddy
pictures largely and even the best of these cannot come even 
close to
what Mr.God promises and I long so much for that!  I guess I 
would
like to get together on Mr.God's lap together right next 
with Jesus
and cuddle with Mr. god and jesus and not be scared of the 
thought.

If that sounds weird, it probably is. I don't always think 
in big
theological terms when I think of Mr. God on a personal 
level.

So to sum things up, yes sometimes I am afraid of mr. 
God.One is not
really afraid but more reverence and that is actually pretty 
cool
because it makes me aware of God's Vastness and omnipotence 
and I
draw comfort from that. When I get scared of mr.God booting 
me out or
not listening to me, then I at least in my head know that 
that is not
of God but of the Evil One trying to get me to doubt Mr. God 
just as
if some of myself starts to secondguess stuff or people I 
should know
better. I'm not aware of Evil getting in between when I'm in 
the
middle of such a rut sometimes though.

Thanks for the question, this is an intersting thread.

God Bless,

Doris
