As much as we would prefer not to acknowledge it – discipline is a part of discipleship.  God sometimes allows affliction to come into our lives in order to drive us toward Him. 

 

The author of Psalm 119 looks at this wonderful paradox from 3 directions: 1) He looks back at his life, evaluating the Products of Past Affliction – 2) He looks at his current circumstances and sees God’s Preservation through Present Affliction – and 3) He concludes by taking an inward look, determined to Maintain a Proper Perspective on Affliction.

 

Depend on God not only to bring you through difficult times, but to grow you through them.
