God disciplines His sons Hebrews 12

Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father. ... Our fathers disciplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness.

No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful.
Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it.
