"Perfect love cast out all fear". Another passage from the Book of Mormon that is very popular, this passage reminds us that we should fear God more than man. It's easy to say that of course, but often times in our society, all of us, (myself certainly included) do the opposite. We fear the opinions and judgments of our fellow man more so than we fear those of God.
What does it mean to fear God more than man? Partially, it means to obey His commands more than those of our neighbors and to place His desires over them as well. This isn't always easy, and again, it's not what I always do either.
