Not a problem. I just didn't want you to think I was ignoring you :). No 
worry.

Yes, sir. I did - two mesages at two different accounts. I just got out of 
gospel sounds and am planning  a bit of mail catchup before crashing here.

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
