Scripture: "My child, don’t reject the LORD’s discipline, and don’t be upset when he corrects you. For the LORD corrects those he loves, just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights." Proverbs 3:11,12 (NLT) Application: The undisputed, greatest of all time, universal champion record holder of spiritual health is Christ Jesus. Compared to Him, we all are a long, long way from being in tip-top shape. But we have a coach: God Himself. Like a loving father toward his child, God wants to shape us into Christ's image. These workout sessions are painful. They come upon us unexpected. We get tired, sore, and frustrated. But God never gives up on us because He sees the potential to be champions in every one of us. Prayer: Father, when You discipline us, please remind us that our goals are achievable, and that You see us as champions worthy of Your grace, mercy, and splendid blessings. Amen.
