Psalm 69

There should be no question in the minds of believers; if we persist in a sin that God has brought to our attention we will face his discipline. And every form of effective discipline hurts. The desire of the pain is to direct us away from rebellious action. Will we be condemned because of the rebellion? Maybe. But if we focus on that we miss God's point of the pain; to build our faith and trust in him to do what is right. When we come back to God, like he wants us to, then we will rejoice in his benefits and enjoy his good pleasure. And we will look forward to his hope fulfilled.
