I guess if I'd been in your shoes, I might have said something about having your heart in the right place...if you're talking to God about removing consequences, then your heart is focused on yourself.

Use God's Word and prayer, both addressed specifically to his problem/area of growth. In addition to times of discipline, talk about these things at times when he is not being disciplined. Model self-control, thanfulness, (the fruits of the spirit). Model repentance when you fail. The rod is one of the important means of grace for your child (Prov. 22:15, 23:13-14). And again, model repentance when you fail. And pray some more. We certainly have a common task in front of us in this arena.richhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372112740001967049noreply@blogger.com
