Rod of Discipline

After a nasty display of disobedience and disrespect towards me last night, I told Ashlyn that she would be getting spanked. Here are her thoughts on the matter:

A - Mommy, you really need to talk to Jesus about this spanking thing.
M - What do you mean?
A - Well spanking is mean and the bible says be kind one to another. When you don't listen to the bible, that is sin. So you better talk to Jesus about being like satan.

Good grief! I teach her bible verses to HELP her obey, not argue a case against spanking!

I told her she was going to learn a NEW bible verse this week. Proverbs 22:15 says, "Foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child; The rod of discipline will remove it far from him."
