The Significance of Boundaries and the Power of Intimacy with God

Boundaries can be a topic of contention, but they are important for maintaining healthy and holy relationships. In the context of our relationship with God, boundaries can help us create an atmosphere of intimacy and ensure that we prioritize our connection with Him. By focusing on what is most important, seeking Him first, and continually partaking in communion with Him, we cultivate an ongoing freshness and closeness in our relationship. It is through the daily intake of His body and blood that we are reminded of His sacrifice and can experience the life that comes from His presence. This intimacy and connection with God should not be overshadowed by fear, self-preservation, or the pursuit of worldly wisdom. Instead, we are called to embrace the sacrificial nature of our faith, recognizing that through dying to ourselves, we are raised up with Him. By wholeheartedly pursuing His presence and continuously partaking in communion with Him, we can experience the true bread of life and the living water that satisfies our deepest longings.
