Proverbs 3:11-12 (NIV). My son, do not despise the LORDs discipline and do not resent his rebuke, because the LORD disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in....... Thoughts on This Verse... Discipline, even when it is not falsely confused with punishment, is considered onerous, irritating, and unnecessary. The lazy and sinful part of us wants no boundaries, even if they are good, and no direction because it might conflict with what we want to do. But the Lord disciplines out of love to bless us. It is a sign of his delight. Why? Because he is not content to leave us unchanged, unmotivated, and disinterested. He wants to move us closer to our goal: Jesus!
