Proverbs 3:11-12 ” My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline, and do not resent his rebuke, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, as a father the son he delights in.” Discipline comes with expectations of obedience. When a child sees there are no consequences for disobedience, unfortunately a parent has just taught the child disobedience and respect and love is lost. Whenever sinful pleasures become the norm and God’s Word and wisdom are ignored a life becomes chaotic and diseased and the love of our Heavenly Father is lost. Lesson: love wise parents and God’s wisdom.

Proverbs 3:6 “In all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” Why is there so much confusion and difficulty in both the world and in our own lives?

Because we forget the promise of the truth so clearly stated in this sentence. To rely on the truth of this verse and apply the truth it expresses would change our entire life and the lives of the entire world.
