Read Hebrews 12;5-9.
Recognizing you are now a child of God is not some distant hope but a present reality.One of the ways God will remind you of this is by correcting you and bringing you back into line like a loving father when you stray away from him.
Before we were believers,we may have felt no sense of guilt for certain things we did or did not do.But now that we are Christians,God's Holy Spirit shows us the way to live,which includes correcting us.He does this not because he hates us,but because he loves us as his own dear children.Understanding this truth should help us in the way we behave.

God Bless.

Amen Brother!  We need and want discipline.  Even the some that say they don't need it.  

If we allow people to continue in a way that we understand by God as bad.. we should do the will of God and admonish their bad habits.  If we allow them to continue in whatever.. we essentially are commiting the same act.  So as a loving, compassionate society-we should help eachother out and point out to them the what and whys of their actions.  And not in a judgemental way.  In an understanding, peaceful way.

God please open our eyes so that we can see and understand!!!
