Scripture: "No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it." — Hebrews 12:11
Reflection: Discipline is not always easy, but it is necessary for growth. It requires persistence and the willingness to endure temporary discomfort for long-term gain. Just as an athlete trains for success, we must train ourselves in spiritual disciplines—prayer, reading Scripture, and loving others. The fruit of discipline is peace and righteousness, rewards far greater than the effort required.
Call to Action: Choose one area of your life where you need more discipline—be it your health, your work, or your spiritual practices. Commit to taking small, consistent steps toward growth today.
