Job 5:17 “Behold, blessed is the one whom God reproves; therefore despise not the discipline of the Almighty.18 For he wounds, but he binds up; he shatters, but his hands heal.
約 伯 記 5:17 「看哪， 神所懲治的人是有福的！所以你不可輕看全能者的管教。18 因為他打傷，又包紮；他擊傷，又親手醫治。
No one like to be disciplined, but when when no one wants to discipline us it means either we are so rebellious that we are forsaken, or no one care about us. This is why we are blessed when we are disciplined by God, because He cares for us and He wants us to be better: “therefore despise not the discipline of the Almighty.” Instead of rejecting discipline, we need to seek the opportunity to open up our wounds and to let God’s hands bind us and heal us. “The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise. ” (Psalm 51:17)

沒有人喜歡受到管教，但是當沒人願意對我們進行管教時，這意味著要么我們如此叛逆以至於我們被拋棄，要么沒人在乎我們。 這就是為什麼當我們受到上帝的管教時我們是有福的，因為祂關心我們，祂希望我們變得更好：“因此不要輕視全能者的管教。” 讓我們不但不拒絕管教，更藉機會打開傷口，讓上帝的雙手包紮我們並醫治我們。 “神所要的祭就是憂傷的靈；神啊，憂傷痛悔的心，你必不輕看。”（詩篇51：17）
