6/25/23 The Fear of the Lord

Homily from the Twelfth Sunday in Ordinary Time

The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

We must cultivate the fear of the Lord in our lives. If we do not, then we will have only a partial vision of who God truly is. If we do not cultivate the fear of the Lord, then we will never have the proper relationship with God that we are made for.
