God disciplines us
for our good
so we can share
in His holiness
and while at the time
it seems sad
yet it yields the fruit
of righteousness.
**********
I can share in Your holiness through discipline , for You are with me.

“For our earthly fathers disciplined us for only a short time as seemed best to them; but He disciplines us for our good, so that we may share His holiness.”
“For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems sad and painful; yet to those who have been trained by it, afterwards it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness [right standing with God and a lifestyle and attitude that seeks conformity to God’s will and purpose].”
Hebrews 12:10,11 AMP
