"...if our life can be so altered by an irrational fear, why does it seem to be so unaltered at times by the most rational fear of all? By the awe-inspiring fear that should be felt at even the mention of one Name?"

I think that perhaps we have been conditioned in so many ways to accept that "God is love all of the time." For the most part that's true. So many of us don't have that close walk with God, we rarely pick up the Bible anymore, or worse yet, we don't have the Word written in us. So we don't have that fear of God, along with a clear understanding, of who He is.
