COT

Proverbs 12:1

“Whoever loves discipline loves knowledge, but one who hates correction is stupid”.

Receiving discipline or correction from God’s word or other people is a tough pill to swallow sometimes. It’s our nature to desire perfection because we long for the One who is perfect. However, in this world we are going to experience setbacks. We are going to make mistakes. Instead of rejecting discipline, we should readily receive it and grow from it.

COT

“But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is perfected in weakness.” Therefore, I will most gladly boast all the more about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may reside in me.”

2 Corinthians 12:9 CSB

It’s easy to grow comfortable in our walk with Christ. If we aren’t intentional about our intimacy with God through His word, prayer, and other believers, then we can become weak spiritually. The human heart doesn’t naturally drift towards God; our hearts naturally drift towards the things of this world and our flesh. This passage is a reminder that we are all going to experience weakness in our walk with Him, but His power and strength is perfected and abundantly available to us during those times.
