Don't be Stupid

S - Scripture  
Proverbs 12 v. 1  Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but he who hates reproof is stupid.

O - Observation
The discipline of discipline. No one likes to be corrected. No one likes to have their errors, mistakes pointed out and to be told what to do. But God tells us to love discipline. How backwards is that? But, there's some merit to it. Hebrews 12 v. 11, "For the moment all discipline seems painful rather than pleasant; later it yields the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it." The Key word in this passage is - TRAIN. Can you learn from your mistakes? Or will you fight the discipline? We need to remember this, Hebrews 12 v. 5b - 6a, " My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor lose courage when you are punished by him. For the Lord disciplines him whom he loves." So don't be STUPID, learn, rejoice (yes rejoice) in your discipline.

A - Application
Do I have the discipline of discipline?

P - Prayer   
Jesus, Thank you for loving me by disciplining me.    Love Will.
