Heb 12:11 ‘Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.”
Spring is here, and while enjoyable we know it brings with it required maintenance towards the vegetation. If we ignore it then we’re disappointed with the growth and results we desire in the summer. The same is true for us spiritually; our life requires maintenance for proper spiritual growth weeding, pruning, feeding and like our own lawn this isn’t the enjoyable part, yet required to yield what we desire. Be patient when the Lord is applying a little chastening, it’s His loving care that yields what is good for us and His will. (Joh 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.)
Spring shows what God can do with a grab and dirty world, let Him work!… HSAY
