After Hebrews 12:1-17
We are children, learning;
we are children inevitably
wayward, choosing the wrong,
ignoring the right. Because
we are loved, we are
disciplined.
It is sons who are disciplined,
sons and daughters, heirs,
disciplined to be trained
to endure the race,
the discipline running
with us in the race, keeping
in our lanes, propelling
us forward, training
us all the way, training
us because he loves
us.
