GOD corrects those he loves, as parents correct a favored child.
LUKE 15:31 (GNT)
"My son," the father answered, "you are always here with me, and everything I have is yours..."
THE ESSENCE
Receive God's correction as a sign of his love and favor.
DAILY FODDER
How does God "correct" people? How do you know that he is correcting you?
PRAYER
Thank you, gracious God, for your correction in my life. You make me feel uncomfortable when I'm not doing the right thing. Forgive me for doing everything I can to muffle the discomfort. Help me to respond with a good and receptive attitude. I'm going to receive your discipline as a sign of your love and favor. Amen.
THE LORD’S PRAYER (ABP)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
