What do I know of Holy?

     A few weeks ago one of our youth students sang What do I know of Holy by Addison Road. I had never heard of that song before that, and honestly, at first, I didn't like it. I now realize I didn't like it because it made sense to me, it hit home for me. What do I actually know of Holy?
     I haven't really been thinking about it since that Wednesday night, but then today, I heard it again while I was cleaning. Once again, it hit me, What do I actually know of Holy?
     I can honestly say that if I had been asked that very question exactly a year ago, I would flat out say that God is good and that I was not afraid of anything happening to me, and of course, that I knew I was going to heaven. But here's the thing....a year ago, I did not fear God, I assumed that I was safe and invincible from anything and everything since I believed in Him.
     Today, even though I don't know a lot about Holy, at least I can say that I'm learning about it. I'm learning about God, and that is a big step for me. In all of my (almost 22) years, I have been in church, but I don't think I was actually "in church" or "in God" constantly until the last two years of my life. Don't get me wrong, I DO believe in God, and I DO believe that I will go to heaven if something were to happen to me, and I have always believed these things, but I never realized how much authority God has over me. I definitely made God too small, just like the song says. During a recent bible study, I learned that in Acts 5, there is a story about the Lord striking down a married couple, Ananias and Sapphira, on two separate occasions for lying to him about land. LAND. God killed this couple because they kept a secret from him. Just like that, one minute they were here, walking around, then the next, their bodies were being carried out of the room. I don't know how I had never heard of this story before, but just like the song, this chapter of the Bible hit home for me. I never knew "my God" would do that. I knew He could, but I assumed that He wouldn't. Now, I'm studying Genesis, and I am learning that "my God" is not only loving, giving, caring, and fatherly, that He is also all-knowing, all-powerful, jealous, and wrathful. Needless to say, I am learning to fear God more so than I had before, and the more I fear Him, the closer I am to Him, and the more I am learning of Holy.
