Fearing the Lord

I've been thinking a lot about what fearing the Lord really looks like.

I would love to hear your thoughts/meditations/experiences on the subject.

1 piece:

"I tell you, my friends, do not fear those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more that they can do. But I will warn you whom to fear: fear him who, after he has killed, has authority to cast into hell. Yes, I tell you, fear him!"

Jesus's words (Luke 12:4-5)

I've heard it defined as "A reverent dread..."

How would you feel in the presence of an all-powerful, all-knowing, righteous, good, just, loving God?

Utterly humbled, I think.

Now how would you feel if this being was "for you"?
