Correction

I don't know about you, but for me, I was never one to receive correction. These days, I am better, but it still has the tendency to make my flesh twitch uncomfortably.

Correction from people is very different from correction from God. If you feel you have never been corrected by God and this seems a little far out there, I assure you, you need to tighten your walk with him. The closer you get to God the more correction from him you will experience.

It becomes a knowing deep in your stomach. Gentle but firm. If you don't know God well and lack a relationship that allows you to understand his character, you will still have this knowing deep in your soul, only it will feel like shame, guilt, and condemnation.

God is a good God. Gentle and loving who possess lavish provisions for us

His correction comes from a love for me and you to bring us to the best version of ourselves, the version he already sees in us.

God not only corrects behaviors in our lives but he heals our wounds so it can correct how we live. God never reveals things in us to make us feel bad but rather to heal us so we may live an abundant life.

Proverbs 15:32

Those who disregard discipline despise themselves, but the one who heeds correction gains understanding
