 WISDOM 

Discipline is not only good for children, it is necessary for their happiness and well-being. Discipline is as vital for healthy child development as nutritious food, physical exercise, love, and other basic needs. Without discipline, children lack
the tools necessary to navigate relationships and challenges in life such as self-discipline, respect for others, and the ability to cooperate with peers. To
those around him or her, a child who is not disciplined will be unpleasant
company, and a child without discipline may find it difficult to make friends.

I used to hate the disciplining I got from my parents, and they seemed to do it often. But when I had children of my own, I did it quite often, too, because I realized that disciplining is very important. I get disciplined by God, too. It doesn’t make me feel good when I had it, but he is concerned about our development. It’s difficult to know when God is disciplining us until we look back on the situation later. But believe me, it did me a lot of wonders and I was gradually changed. I don't have it all together yet: God is not finished with me.
