CORRECTION
As human being, we grow into maturity when we make changes from our wrong attitude to the right one. For change to take place, there is a need for us to be corrected in such area of change. If we are going to be corrected, God is going to use men to do so and we are also to be used to correct others. Since no correction; no change: then, we cannot avoid been corrected by people around us. If our relationship will grow then, the approach to correction must be very mature.
The word of
God teaches us to correct each other with love. This is correcting each other
with understanding. Not reacting but resolving individual confusion with
understanding. Knowing full well that if a mature person behaves wrongly, it is
because they do not understand what makes them err. Therefore, we should not
take correction as accusation but explanation to bring them to understand. By
so doing, we can win them to the side of wisdom.
By reacting
to people, we confront them without considering them. That way, we create
reaction for further reaction and they will not be able to learn. It takes
humility to genuinely correct and people will take it like that. Many times, we
need to pray for God to touch them before we do (Proverbs 2 1:1). Peace.
PRAYER:
Lord, teach me the skill of good correction.
“IT IS
WATER FOR FIRE THAT OFTEN CORRECTS AND NOT FIRE FOR FIRE”
