Those You love, you discipline- YouTube Video

---

A sister in the Lord named “Trudy” created and posted some videos with my music to YouTube.  She chose the song, “Those You Love“, and I was blessed by how wonderfully she captured God’s heart of love.  The song is about how God’s discipline is meant to bring us back to Him and ultimately make us more like Him.  I’m the kind of person who seems to learn things the hard way, so I knew what I was talking about when I wrote the song!  I write and sing a lot about following Jesus but that doesn’t mean I’m an expert at it by any means.  One of the greatest lessons I’ve learned is that God doesn’t just give up on us.  I’m grateful that His Spirit strives with me when I wander, because I know His goal is to bring me into the love of God that’s in Jesus. 

 

 

“And you have forgotten that word of encouragement that addresses you as sons:

“My son, do not make light of the Lord’s discipline, and do not lose heart when He rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, and He punishes everyone He accepts as a son.”  (Hebrews 12:5)

The tone of my song is thankfulness to God because I realize that even in my stupid rebellion and times of sin He just doesn’t give up on me. … I’m His son!  “Thank you Jesus that you’ve brought me back again and again, and your love is true!”
