Today in 1 Peter 2:11-25 we ask, What do we fear? Do we fear public ridicule, being a social outcast, or just simply not fitting in? We are citizens of a different kingdom, and all we have to fear is the Lord. But this fear is not a debilitating fear. It is a fear of reverence, an understanding of authority; it is understanding who we are and who God is. Jesus calls us to have a similar respect for earthly authority as well. In the manner of the book “In His Steps,” we should ask ourselves, What would Jesus do in this situation? Bring Jesus into every moment of your life and fear the Lord.
