Hebrews 12:10-11
10 
They disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, in order that we may share in his holiness. 11 No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.

Reflection
Our scripture today reminds us that God has a harvest for us. In the end, we will be more like Christ because of God’s discipline. God is in the process of using discipline to chisel away everything that doesn't look like Christ. You see, ultimately our purpose on this planet is to bring glory to God and show the world what God looks like. If God is disciplining you, God has great plans for you. We have to learn to celebrate God’s discipline and blessings. 
What ways do you think you could celebrate God’s discipline and blessings?
