Beloved–
My child, don’t reject the Lord’s discipline, and don’t be upset when he corrects you. For the Lord corrects those he loves, just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights … As you endure this divine discipline, remember that God is treating you as his own children … If God doesn’t discipline you as he does all of his children, it means that you are illegitimate and are not really his children at all. (from Proverbs and Hebrews)
I can’t remember having “joy” when I was disciplined as a child. With hindsight I can see that I was a long way down the wrong road of disobedience. Now, I find my JOY in knowing that my God and King is quick to keep me from traveling very far down the wrong way!
I pray for you daily to know that the God who is … Father, Son and Spirit … is right beside you, right behind you and best of all right in front of you!
Luv Ya!
