Good morning. Discipline and love go hand-in-hand. If we think that God should let us do anything without any consequences what we’re really saying is; God shouldn’t love us. When you love someone you correct them, you don’t let them walk in error. Many of us have seen disobedient children in the store and stopped to see if their parents were going to discipline them, and when it didn’t happen we had a mouthful to say. We wondered what type of parents are they. Well, we don’t have to wonder what type of father God is. He’s a God of love and order. We will act orderly and do right, or we will pay the price and suffer the consequences for doing wrong and that’s love.
Hebrews 12:5-6
And have you forgotten the encouraging words God spoke to you as his children? He said,
“My child, don’t make light of the LORD’s discipline, and don’t give up when he corrects you. For the LORD disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.”
Be blessed and continue to be a blessing
