Hebrews 12:5-8

The 12:30 - Heart, Mind, Soul, Strength Posted on by

5 And have you forgotten the encouraging words God spoke to you as his children? He said, “My child, don’t make light of the Lord’s discipline, and don’t give up when he corrects you.

6 For the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.”

7 As you endure this divine discipline, remember that God is treating you as his own children. Who ever heard of a child who is never disciplined by its father?

8 If God doesn’t discipline you as he does all of his children, it means that you are illegitimate and are not really his children at all.

12 If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall.

13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.

1 So get rid of all evil behavior. Be done with all deceit, hypocrisy, jealousy, and all unkind speech.

2 Like newborn babies, you must crave pure spiritual milk so that you will grow into a full experience of salvation. Cry out for this nourishment,

3 now that you have had a taste of the Lord’s kindness.

This is The Daily for Tue, Oct 6, 2026. 

Walking along a beach at dawn, an old man saw that the changing tides had stranded thousands of starfish on the beach.  They would die when the morning sun grew hot.

He noticed a young man repeatedly picking up starfish and tossing them back into the sea, one by one.

“There are miles of beach and thousands of starfish,” the old man said. “How can your efforts make any difference?”

The young man looked down at the small starfish in his hand, and as he threw it to safety in the sea, he said, “Made a difference to that one!”

Today, go make a difference where you are. Don’t let anybody talk you out of it. Who knows how God might use you today?
