S ~ 'And it is good for people to submit at an early age to the yoke of his discipline:' Lamentations 3:27
O ~ It can be harder to submit to discipline if you have not learned it early. Also, being disciplined young is not only beneficial then, but as you age, it saves you and keeps you from many unnecessary troubles.
A ~ Yoke of discpline sounds harsh, and even surprising that the NLT uses the word. However, discipline at a young age saves so much harm, and yet the choice is still with the child - to submit.
P ~ Father God, as your child, thank You for your grace enabling me to submit to Your discipline. May I not chaff under the yoke... (cotton breaves)
