Most people talk behind my back.
People instagate.
Its whatever. Humans are human.
I love them nonetheless but i also dont have to subject myself to them, worship them, or see them as my Lord and Saviour.

So many people only want and desire blessings.
Hebrews 12:6 For the LORD disciplines those he loves, and he punishes each one he accepts as his child.
Thinking there is no suffering involved.

I forgot that the writer of hebrews mentions for those who desire to grow and mature.
Hebrews 6:1-3 states:
Therefore let us move beyond the elementary teachings about Christ and be taken forward to maturity, not laying again the foundation of repentance from acts that lead to death,[a] and of faith in God, 2 instruction about cleansing rites,[b] the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead, and eternal judgment. 3 And God permitting, we will do so.

So explain it for us. I don't have a clue what you mean.

In Biblical language:
| 5 and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons, “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, Nor faint when you are punished by Him; 6 For whom the Lord loves He disciplines, And He punishes every son whom He accepts.” 7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline? 8 But if you are without discipline, of which all have become partakers, then you are bastards and not sons. |
I do have other lying issues that have yet to be dealt with, but it's okay! :) God has cut me back time and time again, and it's like man... All I can do is put my trust in his Son who faithfully lived a life I never could, and hope that Yahavah/Yahweh/Yehovah/Jehovah continues to work in and through on my mind and heart.
Yes. Thank you for sharing. Jesus also talks about this, when he talks about himself being the vine, and his Father the vine dresser.

That's John 15:1-2, for those of you keeping score at home.
15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.
Pruning is the selective removal of parts of a plant—like branches, stems, or buds—to improve its health, shape, and growth. It’s a key practice in gardening, landscaping, and agriculture.
What Pruning Does
• Improves plant health by removing dead, diseased, or damaged parts
• Shapes and controls growth, helping plants maintain a desired size or form
• Stimulates new growth by redirecting energy to healthy areas
• Enhances flowering and fruiting in many species
• Reduces safety hazards by eliminating weak or overgrown branches
How It Works
• Pruning involves making clean cuts to remove unwanted parts.
• Plants respond by sealing off wounds and redirecting growth.
• Timing matters: late winter to early spring is ideal for most trees and shrubs.
️ Tools Used
• Hand pruners for small branches
• Loppers for medium-sized limbs
• Pruning saws for thicker branches
Types of Pruning
• Thinning: Removes select branches to improve light and air flow.
• Heading: Cuts back to a bud to encourage bushier growth.
• Shearing: Shapes hedges or topiary.
• Deadheading: Removes spent flowers to encourage more blooms.
