"For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives. For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.” Hebrews 12:6
I was thinking of this verse, and was applying it to sin and retribution. But then I realized that Jesus has taken all my sins upon himself. The Lord disciplines us, but his wrath is forever spared, having been taken by Jesus. Committing a sin is so much more bitter in light of the one who loves us, but our lives are swept away by the sweetness of assurance we have in God’s steadfast love.
