God-fearing

Fear here means to respect. God loves us and does not want us to be afraid of him. Its like if you are always honest, then there is nothing for you to fear. We have freedom to choose what we want to believe because god loves us. god loves, but not everything. God forgives us because he loves us. Its like if you cheat your partner, and then you say sorry and you really mean it, then if you are lucky, your partner forgives you. Its the same with god. If you are lucky, he forgives you. If you live right, as your heart tells you is God's way, then there's no need to fear anything.
