Stupid People Don't Learn From Mistakes

Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but whoever hates correction is stupid.

Proverbs 12:1

The biggest difference between a child of God and one who is of this world is how we handle discipline… There are those who desire to retaliate and refuse discipline while others are more focused on embracing and learning from the errors of their ways… The last concept of handling discipline is how a Christian must think when they are faced with disciplinary measures as Solomon tells us that whoever loves discipline loves knowledge… This is not to say or suggest that you will be smiling when you are corrected, but that you will love the correction because you know that this will make you a better person and a stronger individual when faced with a similar challenge… These reasons alone are why we must learn to love discipline… We must remember that God desires nothing but the best for us and from us; this means that the discipline that you endure will promote the desires of God in you so that you can become the very thing which He designed you to be… We all have a lot of growing and maturing to do in the will of God and the growing pains we experience as we move toward is will are never promised to be easy… The writer of Hebrews declares in the 12^thchapter this very thing when he says “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.” Don’t focus on the discipline that you are subject to, learn to seek the message which is being conveyed through the times of struggle which you face… 

ALL FOR HIS GLORY!
