TOUGH LOVE for OUR GOOD

I believe that God shows his children "TOUGH LOVE" sometimes.
He doesn't always give us what we want.
He doesn't always give into our pity party so we will feel better....
He doesn't always tell us what we want to hear.
He doesn't always enable us to do what is bad for us.
NO, when needs be. He shows us "TOUGH LOVE" for our good.

Because sometimes we as children of God we do not respond to
his tap our shoulders. We like to indulge in sin, go our own way, and be stubborn sometimes. He doesn't give us what we always want. He gives us what is good for us. He wants his children to be walking the straight and narrow, not the wide road that leads to destruction. HE is a GOOD PARENT for he disciplines us no matter what our age is. We are his children forever.

The Lord disciplines the one he loves, and he chastens everyone he accepts as his son. - Hebrews 12:6

Prayer today: God, Help me to be more like you. To know when to show loving grace but know when to show "touch love" for my children's good. My desire is to be a good parent just like you. Thank you for showing me "tough love" when I needed it.
And not giving into my every whim. For showing me right from wrong. Because there is no gray with you. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen
