Today's Verse
Do not rebuke mockers or they will hate you; rebuke the wise and they will love you.
Proverbs 9:8 · NIV
Today's Picture
“Imagine a soccer coach who says: kick with the side of your foot! Whoever gets angry never becomes a champion. Whoever listens and practices scores goals!”
Correction isn't a fight, it's help to make you better!
The Practical “Why”
When Mom or your teacher tells you that you got something wrong, you kind of want to get mad, right?

No one corrects someone they don't love.
The Bible says something really interesting: whoever is wise LOVES it when someone corrects them.
And whoever doesn't want to learn gets angry.
Even Jesus said this!
When God corrects you, it's because He loves you so much!
So, next time someone corrects you, take a deep breath and say:
“thank you, I'll try to do better!”
