My son, do not despise the instruction of the Lord,
Neither grow weary under His reproof.
For whom the Lord loves He instructs,
And chastises every son He receives.
Encouraging Words...
Parenting! It is such a blessed opportunity in life and yet one filled with challenges and heartaches. I can remember those times that I had to discipline and reprove my children and would often be in silent tears after doing so. This is just a small glimmer of the heart of God. He loves me as His own child and in that love He too disciplines, reproves, and instructs me. My role in this is to be obedient, to not despise this instruction, and to cherish the love that He has for me.
