Waiting for the Temperature to Change - #6311
Truth plus pressure equals life closed. I think it's hardest in parenting. You know you correct, or rebuke, or you encourage your child - nothing happens. They don't seem to be getting it. And out of fear we start to push, and nag, and attack. Like a good farmer, pray for patience and allow the truth seed time to win. It's amazing what a little space can do.

"Rebuke" in the Bible: 2 Timothy 4:2
We usually think of a rebuke as a bad thing, but when it's used in love to put somebody on the correct path, it can be a blessing to them.

Ron Hutchcraft Ministries - It Stings--But it Disinfects - #3883
Notice, a rebuke can actually be "life-giving." It doesn't usually feel life-giving. When someone points out something they don't like about us, it hurts. It stings. But God says if we heed that criticism or rebuke, we're showing how wise we are.
