Yirah

When was your deepest moment of fear?
Was it when you were in front of a crowd?
Or was it when you failed that exam?
Was it when the airplane was in turbulence?
Or was it when the car flipped over throwing you in chaos?
Was it when you saw the mountains tremble?
Or was it when you felt the presence of God?

Yirah, it is the Hebrew word for fear, for awe, the beginning of wisdom.
