Thoughts for Today
We set boundaries for our children. Don't touch the hot stove. ... Don't run into the street. ... Show respect to other people. We set these boundaries because we love them and want those things we know are best for them.

As we've been discussing this week, God in his love has set boundaries for us, 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. But the Bible says that if we choose to live within the boundaries, we will please God, encourage others and receive God's blessing. 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.

Consider this ...
Contrary to popular opinion, walking within God's boundaries is the smartest thing we can do. Have you found yourself trying to stay so open-minded and politically correct that you have strayed outside some of those boundaries?
