BOTTOM LINE: Embracing discipline helps me embrace my dad.
Proverbs 3:11-12 NLT
11 My child, don’t reject the Lord’s discipline,and don’t be upset when he corrects you. 12 For the Lord corrects those he loves,just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.
1. Discipline is not punishment.
PUNISHMENT - Past, Pain, Anger
DISCIPLINE - Future, Correction, Love
2. Learning from discipline is a choice.
3. Discipline proves my father's love.
