"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." Hebrews 12:11
A friend of mine recently posted this verse on his Facebook page and I took it to heart. I shared it with Dawn and have let it become sort of my theme verse for this study, for my bike training, for my first feeble attempts at disciplining as a parent (I can't count how many times I say "No no!" in the course of one day), and for my often failed attempts to set aside time to be still before God. I'm going to try memorizing this verse, and I'm praying for the strengthening that discipline brings and the refinement of righteousness and peace.
