Blessed In Discipline

Trusting God not only means that we trust him for provision, but for the blessing of discipline too. He is perfect and so full of love. He does not discipline the way broken people do. He weighs our hearts, and our motives, and then sends the gentle and compelling conviction of His Spirit to woo us right back to the center of His heart. If you are being disciplined, it means you are a legitimate child, blessed, and in the midst of a glorious transformation. He wants you to reflect Him, even in the smallest of things!

Job 5:17-18
“Blessed is the man whom God corrects;
so do not despise the discipline of the Almighty.
For he wounds, but he also binds up;
he injures, but his hands also heal.
