Knowing God - Boundaries Motivated by Love



Ps 104:9
Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over; that they turn not again to cover the earth.

He Set Boundaries

The Lord has created the oceans and seas.  He set a boundary that they can only go far.  Our God is a God of boundaries and His boundaries are for our good.  He knows where everything should be and how things best function.  The land has its place.  The sea has its place.  Our Creator is the one that we should look to in order to know the appropriate place for everything in our lives.  How much time we spend on entertainment, work, relationships and exercise is to be determined by our God of boundaries.  How much money is spent on food, clothes, others and the kingdom should be established by our God.  How much food we eat, how much sleep we get and when we should accomplish something should be set by this wonderful God.  When to express ourselves sexually, when to cultivate our intellect and when to relax should be brought before our God and His boundaries are to be respected and obeyed.  Our God is a great God of order and His boundaries are for our good.  Let us seek Him on these things and joyfully cooperate with His limits and boundaries knowing He is a God of love and His boundaries are  motivated by that love.
