Good Morning, And (T.G.I.F.) Thank God I'm Forgiven!! We set boundaries for our children. Don't touch the hot stove,...Don't
run into the street,...Show respect to other people, and their property. We set these
boundaries because we love them, and want those things we know are best,
for them. God in His love has set boundaries for us as well,...His children.
He is our Creator, our Father, and knows what is best for us. Walking
in obedience and staying within His boundaries is the wisest way we can live.
The Bible teaches us about God's boundaries. Our culture says that if we believe in these boundaries, we are narrow-minded.
"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all who follow his precepts have good understanding. To him belongs eternal praise."—Psalm 111:10 (NIV)
The Bible says that living within God's boundaries brings us security.
This doesn't mean we won't have problems, but it does mean God will help
us through whatever we face. Trying to stay open-minded, and politically correct,...we can easily find ourselves straying outside some
of those boundaries. And contrary to popular opinion, walking within God's boundaries is the
smartest thing we can do.
The Bible says that if we choose to live within the boundaries, we will please God, encourage others,...and receive God's blessing.
Father God, we thank You for giving us boundaries that guide us into right decisions, and keep us safe. Forgive us for the times we've been swayed by popular opinion,...and chosen our own way,...or the more popular way,...instead of Your way. Amen.
"When you accepted Christ as Lord and Savior, you became a new creation."
