Heavenly Father, thank You that You love me so much that Your punishment is not designed to harm me, but to return me into precious fellowship with Yourself. Help me to keep a short rein on my sin and confess it quickly to You. I pray that I will be teachable and learn every lesson that You would give me, through Your chastening programme. This I ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
