Discipline…discipline…and some more discipline

"To discipline and reprimand a child produces wisdom, but a mother is disgraced by an undisciplined child." Proverbs 29:15



"Don’t fail to correct your children. They won’t die if you spank them. Physical discipline may well save them from death.” Proverbs 23:13

If you refuse to discipline your children, it proves you don’t love them; if you love your children, you will be prompt to discipline them.” Proverbs 13:24

My child, don’t ignore it when the Lord disciplines you, and don’t be discouraged when he corrects you. For the Lord corrects those he loves, just as a father corrects a child in whom he delights.” Proverbs 3:11-12

Discipline your children while there is hope. If you don’t, you will ruin their lives.” Proverbs 19:18

Teach your children to choose the right path, and when they are older, they will remain upon it.” Proverbs 22:6

“To learn you must love discipline; it is stupid to hate correction.” Proverbs 12:1  

“A youngster’s heart is filled with foolishness but discipline will drive it away.” Proverbs 22:15

Here are just a few passages to show how important discipline is to the Lord…just in case you didn’t know!

Prayer: Lord instill discipline within us. Amen
