I hear the pain in my coaching client's words when they say, “I feel like God is punishing me.” Many of the women who go through my programs and coaching one-to-one have been taught a view of God that is vengeful, full of wrath, and all punishment. They fear that when they don’t do something perfect God will punish them for it.
If our theology of God isn’t based on His goodness, then when things happen that we didn’t expect or plan for, it’s easy to think God is punishing us. But God doesn’t bring punishment; he does, however, discipline us.
In this episode, I walk through what I've learned about the differences between punishment and discipline. God will prune the parts of our lives that do not bear fruit if we allow Him to.
Do you often view God as a punisher? Do you have a healthy view of discipline? Let’s talk about it.
Rooting for you,
Jessica
