When God is chastening us, we know it! No one needs to say, “God’s giving you a spanking!” (Why are they so gleeful?) ‘They’ may make us want us to bow up and resist! But we need to tune ‘them’ out and focus on our issues and how much love and tenderness God uses to guide us back onto the pathway of happiness and usefulness for Him!
Romans 2:4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness and forbearance and longsuffering; not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?
And God is rich in mercy and abundant in grace! When we appeal to him, He doesn’t say, ‘You’ve made your bed hard: now lie in it!’ He pulls us again from the miry clay, and sets our feet on the solid rock, and establishes us again on the right pathway!
