God’s Discipline
#
Pro 3:11-12 - My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be
weary of his correction: 12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even
as a father the son in whom he delighteth.
Intro.
There is a whole passage in Hebrews 12 that talks about the discipline
of the Lord! It is very helpful. Hear, we have Solomons wise words on
the matter. These verses are a little different in the previous sets,
because, before, we have a reward, here, we just have reason. There is
reward, and it is great… it is just not mentioned clearly here.

and at the same time, we can see the need for correction and punishment

Miscellaneous Thoughts

Proverbs 20:12, 20, 30
Introduction
Tonight is more of a shotgun message, it will hit all over the place
instead of just hitting one theme. These are the last three verses that
I was not able to fit into a category in this chapter. From Proverbs 10
on, we have many sayings that are not necessarily themed, or go
together. For sake of thought and continuity, I have been going through
each chapter, and connecting the dots between the thoughts that are
covered to give us a uniform way to look at them, and cover topics.
