Sometimes I get a little too comfortable with God.

I know there’s a paradox here because we’re supposed to be comfortable right? After all, He does tell us that we are to call Him “Father” and He let’s us know that we are His children.

It’s true. I am a child of God… but sometimes I still need to be reminded that God is BIG and even though He’s my Father, He doesn’t mess around.

These following verses bring me back to reality. They make me humble in His presence. They make me evaluate my life and realize my need for a savior!

• Psalm 76:7  No wonder you are greatly feared! Who can stand before you when your anger explodes?

• Psalm 90:11 Who can comprehend the power of your anger? Your wrath is as awesome as the fear you deserve.

• Romans 2:8 But he will pour out his anger and wrath on those who live for themselves, who refuse to obey the truth and practice evil deeds.

So these verses, and others like them humble me, but they don’t overwhelm me because of this verse…

• Romans 3:25 For God sent Jesus to take the punishment for our sins and to satisfy God’s anger against us. We are made right with God when we believe that Jesus shed his blood, sacrificing his life for us.
