POP 285 - A Prayer Request

In this episode Tony shares about the fact that he is presently being chastened by God.

Did you know that God "spanks" his kids?

Sometimes when there's something in our heart and life that shouldn't be there...

When there's something in our heart and life that's "ugly"...

When there's something that we refuse to look at or deal with...

God finally says... "That's enough!"

The Lord isn't going to look the other way forever... and he's not going to let something remain that's not supposed to be there.

When God "spanks" us... it's not because he hates us.

It's not because he's mad at us.

It's not because he wants to hurt us.

IT'S BECAUSE HE LOVES US... and he want's his very best for us.

It's because he's about the business of conforming us more an more to the image of his Son... Jesus.

In this episode Tony talks about what it's like to be "spanked" by God... and he has a prayer request!
