Our relationship to God should reach a point where we move past simply fearing His chastisement, to fearing His sorrow when we grieve Him. Consider the difference. On one hand, I fear the consequences of chastisement that the Lord might send my way if I sin willingly. On the other hand, I am now coming to realize that my growing fear is how my sin will grieve Him (Ephesians 4:30). Yes, He may choose to send chastisement my way in response to any unchecked sin in my life, but that would be fully deserved, wouldn't it? My increasing overriding goal though, is to simply not deliberately sin so that I do not cause Him grief. I fear doing that! I'm sure you see the difference.
