Wisdom

"My child, don't reject the Lord's discipline, and don't be upset when He corrects you. For the Lord corrects those He loves, just as a father corrects a child in whom He delights."
Proverbs 3:11-12

I think we should rejoice when the Lord corrects us, knowing that He loves us in doing so. We know as parents that it is out of love that we correct our children. I am learning to be aware of the Lord gently guiding me away from movies I shouldn't see and correcting me when I have thoughts I shouldn't toward others. I don't want to judge anyone. But sometimes I judge so quickly, even if it's somebody's hairstyle! And I sure don't have perfect hair! I want to accept people and if they need guidance in some area and ask for it, I will help them, myself being guided by the wisdom of the Lord.
