My son, do not despise the LORD’s discipline or be weary of his reproof, for the LORD reproves him whom he loves, as a father the son in whom he delights.

Proverbs 3:11-12

===

If God didn’t love you, he wouldn’t care if you were on the right track.

He wouldn’t care if your choices were moving yourself further and further from Him.

So he brings things into your life, sometimes very hard things, to pull you back towards him.

This is one way we know He loves us.

Respond to that love.

For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior…”

You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

Matthew 22:37-39

===

What would happen if you lived a little more in the direction of these two commandments in 2019?

What if all who claimed Jesus (He who spoke these words) as their King lived a little more in this direction?

Much would be done – for God’s Glory and man’s good.

See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is.

1 John 3:1-2

===
