Do you find it easy to blame God for your chronic pain? As you walk through chronic pain, you can feel a loss of control and it can be easier to blame God and others. Yet, maybe we don't actually have a full knowledge of God and His plan. We have to open ourselves to the fullness of His Word in order to understand how He is transforming us into a new person of Christ, despite our suffering.
Discipline can sound intimidating, yet it has the ability to take away our spiritual pride. When we open ourselves to spiritual discipline, we are able to fully surrender to our new identity in Christ. God's love and discipline lead us to repentance. They lead to breaking off the layers of pride that separate us from God. They restore us and draw us to an abundant life.
