Hebrews 12:10 cuts straight to the heart of why God disciplines His children: "that we may share His holiness." Every difficult season, every corrective circumstance, every thorn and every whirlwind is aimed at a singular goal — conforming us into the image of Jesus Christ. The author of Hebrews is honest that discipline is not pleasant in the moment. But he is equally clear about what it produces: "the peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it."
