I think if we were to sit around a campfire and reflect upon the stories of how we were raised and how we were disciplined as children, there would be lots of experiences heard that might bring back both good and bad memories.
I do not think any of us particularly like to be disciplined, yet we must acknowledge that discipline certainly can bring about healthy growth in one’s journey. As our scriptures relate, discipline encourages us to right relationships, have healthy boundaries, and develop stronger relationships with God and others.
Spiritual Reflection: “Lord, help discipline my thoughts and actions and grow your Spirit within us.”
Blessings of love,
