Things that make you go Hmmmm.

Before settling down for bed. With little to occupy a whole day, i opted to catch up on the daily daily readings i brought along. From yesterdays mass (didnt catch much as it was in French) is the 2nd reading. While its not good to read directly into things.... ahh seems pretty relevant and current. Today's reading is from Hebrews.

Reading of the day...
Hebrews 12:5-8,11
You have forgotten the exhortation addressed to you as children: “My son, do not disdain the discipline of the Lord or lose heart when reproved by him;

for whom the Lord loves, he disciplines; he scourges every son he acknowledges.”

Endure your trials as “discipline”; God treats you as sons. For what “son” is there whom his father does not discipline?

At the time, all discipline seems a cause not for joy but for pain, yet later it brings the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who are trained by it.


Peace
