Soul or Spirit?

Does anybody know the difference between your soul and spirit? As a believer, I didn't for years. There is a difference. When you look up in the dictionary the word 'soul', you find this...
The animating and vital principle in humans, credited with the faculties of thought, action, and emotion and often conceived as an immaterial entity
Your 'thought' is your mind, action would be your 'will', and 'emotion' is just what it says, your 'emotions'. Your soul is your "mind, will, and emotions".

We are made up of three parts. Our physical body, our soul (mind,will, and emotions) and our spirit. Our spirit is that part which is our true life (that force or principle of life that animates the body of living things). This is the life that God breathed into each of us and when we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, He deposits His 'Holy Spirit' into our 'spirit'.

Knowing the difference between 'soul' and 'spirit' helps a bunch in understanding the Bible and how they work.

I Am In Awe and Revere My God!

Yes, that's right. I fear him! That's what it means to be in awe of Him and revere Him! I highly esteem Him. Deeply respect and venerate Him! I worship Him!

Does not sound like fear to you? Well, that's the kind of fear God had in mind for you to feel towards Him. God is good. He does not want you to be afraid or frightened of Him like what we think of when we think of fear.

So fear of the Lord means extreme reverence or awe. The synonyms for 'revere' is worship, venerate, adore, idolize.

So in this case, I have definite 'fear of the Lord!'
