Discipline

WHEN YOU NEED TO BE REMINDED THAT DISCIPLINE IS WORTH IT . . .

Direct your children onto the right path,

and when they are older, they will not leave it.

To discipline a child produces wisdom,

but a mother is disgraced by an undisciplined child.

WHEN YOUR HEART LONGS TO SEE YOUR CHILDREN EXPERIENCE GOD’S BLESSING . . .

Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land the LORD your God is giving you.

WHEN YOU’RE TEMPTED TO LASH OUT AT YOUR CHILD . . .

Do not provoke your children to anger by the way you treat them. Rather, bring them up with the discipline and instruction that comes from the Lord.
