When you hear the word boundaries what does it elicit in your mind? Do you have a sense of calm come over you knowing the beauty boundaries can bring? Or do you feel this struggle inside wondering where to draw the line?
After reading “The Best Yes” by Lysa TerKeurst, years ago, I began making small changes which ended up making huge differences in my life. I was so hung up on doing the “Christian thing” I would say yes to everyone, especially someone in need. Then I began to realize
Jesus didn’t say, “Yes” to everyone nor should I.
So when Sarah Geringer’s post about boundaries came across my computer, I couldn’t click it fast enough. Not only did she reinforce what I already know, but she also left me wondering, “Do I erect stone walls?”
“We either let people trample our fences, or we erect stone walls where wooden fences would suffice.”
