A REFLECTION OF SELF Every spring we brace for it to happen again. A robin appears at the windows of our patio room and begins a relentless assault. From dawn until dusk he hurls himself against the glass . He puffs out his chest, chirps in agitation, and returns again and again to do battle. To him, an intruder has invaded his territory.

The deeper question is, do we believe and trust that God knows best? Discipline comes in many forms. It can be difficult to know exactly what to do or where to start. Fear of immediate consequences sometimes outweighs our fear of eternal consequences. In the cases where…
