I said something to the effect of, "Well then, maybe I will stop disciplining you and you can behave however you want." and she yelled, "Nooooooo!" and ran into my arms. <br /><br />Even a young child can see that having someone care about them enough to help them behave the way they want to is a good thing. I think with children, even God's adult children, when we are doing/thinking/being something she shouldn't be and no one addresses it, we tend to escalate the behaviour. With children, it is as if they are crying out, "Somebody stop me." I think it might be the same for us adults.<br /><br />Praise our faithful Father God, that He is there to hear our call and intervene!<br /><br />Thanks for another great blog entry, Pastor Paul.Kellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17670578232813960093noreply@blogger.com
