BIBLICAL PARENTING PRINCIPLE # 4: Correct and Develop Them
As parents our responsibility is to go beyond guiding to correcting. Becoming a parent who is willing to engage in correction is the difference between raising average kids or raising great kids. Many have a hard time with discipline because they want their kids to like them, and they feel like discipline will harm or cause them to be mad at them, but true love from a parent must include discipline.
The Bible is clear about the need to discipline our kids. Without discipline, our children will not thrive at the rate they were designed. Because of our sinful nature, we partner with God to work out our sinful nature, but we must remember that if we love them, we will discipline them.
We Discipline Because We Love Our Kids
Allowing your child to become a fool because of a lack of discipline will bring you grief and grief for your kid's future. If you want to see your child thrive, you must care enough to confront them. Discipline is the way we help our children learn the boundaries and edges of what’s good and healthy for their lives. Sometimes we don’t know "not" to touch the hot stove until we touch it and feel the sting or burn, warning us to stay away from that harmful choice in the future.
