The walls of my heart have boundaries...there are hidden things the likes you will never know.
Secrets, only known by me and by God.
Some boundaries are self-made, intentionally erected and strong enough to sustain any intrusions. Others are emotion-driven, self preservation attempts, instilled from past experiences and oftentimes failures.
Some boundaries appear when trust takes a back seat...or completely leaves the vehicle.
Healthy boundaries are allowable, even needed, but when boundaries lead to cynicism...beware. When distrust rules the day, safety and security leave and respect crumbles. Then anger fills in the crevices, followed by a callous heart, devoid of compassion and understanding...and forgiveness.
To let evil erect boundaries in my heart is not only dangerous but sinful. To put all trust in anyone other than God is futile.

Other boundaries come when disappointment rides rough shod over the best of intentions, making for strained relationships and you head for the loneliness and pity sections of your heart, vowing to never darken the doors again.

Father God, please do not let me erect boundaries against you, but let me trust in you completely. Help me to close my ears to the negative one who wants to tear down and destroy. For you are my refuge and in you only can I find the calming peace for mind and soul.
