Boundaries

Boundaries

MY QUESTION for GOD

What boundaries do I need in my life, and why do I need them?

A MOMENT with GOD

Guard your heart above all else, for it determines the course of your life.

Proverbs 4:23

My child, listen and be wise: Keep your heart on the right course.

Proverbs 23:19

The purpose of a guardrail on a dangerous curve is not to inhibit your freedom to drive, but to save your life! That guardrail keeps you on the road and provides security and safety. The Bible tells us that without some restraints, we would go out of control. Look to God’s Word to be a guardrail as you travel through life—not to inhibit your freedom but to keep you safe and on the right path. If you don’t guard your heart with God’s Word and stay focused on the road God has laid out for you, you may have a terrible accident when temptation distracts you. This also applies to business and ministry. When you do what is right according to God’s Word, you develop a reputation of integrity. You don’t take advantage of others, you realize you can’t take credit for your successes, and you know you need to rely on God and others to help you finish strong. These boundaries don’t restrict you but in fact help you do well in business, in ministry, or in any area of life.

DIVINE PROMISE

JOYFUL ARE THOSE YOU DISCIPLINE, LORD, THOSE YOU TEACH WITH YOUR INSTRUCTIONS.Psalm 94:12
