"Shall we not much rather be in subjection unto the
Father of our spirits, and live?" Hebrews 12:9
Do not think that the difficulties you encounter are
incidental. Do not ignorantly regard them as mere accidents. You should know
better; these things are arranged daily for you by God. They are his measured
discipline of love.
I once witnessed a scene which may serve as an illustration.
I saw five or six children playing in a yard. All of them were covered with
mud. A mother came and boxed the ears of three of the children, forbidding them
to go on with the game. One child exclaimed, "Why don’t you strike the
others too?" "Because they are not my own children," she
replied.
It will be a sad thing if God does not discipline you. All
sons are disciplined, and you should be no exception.
