Love Without Losing Boundaries
“Watch, stand fast in the faith, be brave, be strong. Let all that you do be done with love.”
I Corinthians 16:13-14 NKJV
https://bible.com/bible/114/1co.16.14.NKJV
Christian love doesn’t mean allowing unlimited access to your life.
You can be respectful without sharing your private thoughts. You can be generous without allowing yourself to be exploited. You can forgive while remaining appropriately cautious.
Pray:
“Lord, teach me what healthy Christian boundaries look like. Help me neither punish people nor expose myself unnecessarily. Let my boundaries be peaceful rather than vindictive. Amen.”
Christlike attitude:
I can love someone without giving them unlimited access to me.

Margo Huss is a loving Christian mother of 7 and wife of a Muslim Christian convert. She enjoys musing on hot political and philosophical issues from on the ground and through life in Christ.
A recovering Gen X-er, she offers a refreshingly honest, if not muesli-brained and opinionated view on current cultural issues. Contrary to what some might believe, she is open to new ideas and is a life-long learner.
Typically female, she transcends factual information and thinks she is always right. She may occasionally agree with you, though you will never know. You are wrong even when you are right. You may find her mainstream takes luke warm, but her faith runs deep and hot.
You can block her, abuse her, or simply enjoy interacting with her, but you cannot shut her up.
