Stir-fried Bamboo Shoots And Mushrooms

The fear of God brings temporal and eternal benefits: 1. “The secret of the Lord is for those who fear Him, and He will make them know His covenant” (Ps. 25:14). 2. “The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and rescues them” (Ps. 34:7). 3. “The Lord has compassion on those who fear Him” (Ps. 103:13). 4. “The Lord favors those who fear Him” (Ps. 147:11). 5. “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom” (Prov. 1:7; 9:10). 6. “The fear of the Lord prolongs life” (Prov. 10:27). 7. “The fear of the Lord leads to life, that one may sleep satisfied, untouched by evil” (Prov. 19:23). 8. “The reward of humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, honor and life” (Prov. 22:4). 9. As David says to the Lord, “How great is Your goodness, which You have stored up for those who fear You” (Ps. 31:19). Clearly, fearing God is to your great advantage.
