Our first postulate is that because God is God, He does as He pleases, only as He pleases, always as He pleases; that His great concern is the accomplishment of His own pleasure and the promotion of His own glory that He is the Supreme Being, and therefore Sovereign of the universe.

Chastisement is designed for our good, to promote our highest interests. Look beyond the rod to the All-wise hand that wields it!
