Col 1:20a-21 “And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself… And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled.”
God does not discipline us to subdue us but to prepare us for a life of purposefulness and blessedness. In His wisdom, He knows that an uncontrolled life is an unhappy life, so He puts reins on our wayward souls that they may be directed into the paths of righteousness. This is only done by reconciling us to Himself. Resist and retreat to your own paths, only refrains oneself from traversing paths of hope, promise, and protection in exchange for self-provision.
Short cuts often make for long delays… HSAY
