Hebrews 12:11 (New International Version)
11.No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
Better late than never! That is what I have related to lots of time, and it is true. But being late or coming in to close is dangerous! AND sometimes later is good and ordained from God such as this scripture above. Later on, ahead of us we will see and understand that God is working in our lives so we will produce this "good" fruit.
love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.(Galatians 5:21-23). This is the fruit, this is the result of the trials we experience in our life. As we begin another week, let's remember when these "things" come our way, that we can and should grow and bear "much" fruit. I pray Gods blessings on you, sweet friends! Have a wonderful week!

Thanks for sharing such great scripture. It seems appropriate for Lent; a time for discipline and renewal!
Excellent! Brief but powerful message.
Thank you for sharing from your heart. Beautiful site. I look forward to reading more.
I love how you said that, "better late than never". Something about that just put a big smile on my face. What a great attitude!
Thank you for these good reminders. I've used the Better late than never term many times.
Have a great week.
