Loving Guidance


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. (Proverbs 3:11-12 NLT)


Correction & discipline are not punishment(some people think God punish us with disease, tragedies, accidents, hardships, or death - that's a lie of the devil) - God's correction & discipline are LOVING guidance, our parents wouldn't hurt us to 'teach us a lesson' and our Heavenly Father wouldn't either!

That loving guidance is given to help steer us in the right direction when we've taken a wrong turn. Sometimes it's a difficult path (thorn in the side), sometimes we get on the right track quickly, and sometimes we have a season of challenges. As long as we continue to follow God through that time (keep our faith in Him and not in ourselves) we will always be showered with God's grace and mercies.
