The fear of the Lord: fountain of life



 "The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, turning one away from the snares of death." - Proverbs 14:27

The snares of death are everywhere, but there is also the fountain of life that turns us away from those snares: the fear of the Lord. He who drinks from that fountain receives great strength to resist sin, to put to death the works of the flesh, to reject religious traditions and man-made teachings, and advance on the path of holiness.
He who drinks from that fountain desires to please God and hates sin, resulting in a sanctified life. If a holy life is the most important thing to me, then I will continually drink from the refreshing fountain of life called the fear of the Lord.
