Life Verse

"The Lord is my light and salvation----- whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strong hold of my life of whom shall I be afraid." Psalm 27:1

I  choose Psalm 27:1 as my life verse because I believe that as long as I'm with God I have nothing to be afraid of. It is said that if you have a strong faith with God you will blessed and guided. When I was a child my mother asked me, "Are you afraid of God?" This question bothered me a lot  and it took me some time to find my answer. "No, I'm not afraid of God." I said. Then my mother throws me another question, "Are you afraid of ghosts?" "I'm not." I answered my mother. Since then my answers bothered me because I said both that I'm not afraid of ghosts and God either. I took time to reminisce and after some time of reminiscing I knew then the answer to my question. My answer should be, " I'm not afraid of ghosts, bad spirits, sayings and other scary stuffs because I believe in God. He is the only one I must be afraid of because when I'm afraid of Him I do things right and as much as possible avoid sinful acts. Like the one in sayings fear no one except God because if your afraid of Him you will obey His commandments, you will build strong relationship and faith with God. This is why it is said God will guide and protect who fears Him."
