How do you receive correction? Do you welcome it? Are you resentful? Do you rehash it over and over in your mind? The real question is, how eager are you to grow? If you see the importance of stretching, you will understand that Jesus Christ died so that you could have eternal life - not just temporal illusion. Much of the time, the correction of the Lord comes in ways that on the surface, are not welcome. He keep after us because He love us. He wants us to be like Him, and He longs for us to take up the Cross. We will be done there. Not before. |
