Brianna's comment on 2015-06-23 03:59:32:

Discipline is usually not an enjoyable thing, but it is necessary. Jehovah has laid out his expectations for us In the bible, yet, sometimes we chose not to obey it. By not shielding us from the consequences of our own actions , we see the discipline from God. Likewise when we engage in sinful behavior we lose Gods spirit, thus another discipline fro Jehovah. Yet, discipline is meant to correct, and when done right, it is done out of love in order to help the erring person come back to an approved state. So, when we experience God 's discipline let us obey it and come back to him in an approved state.
