What do you think of when you hear the word “boundaries”? Boundaries is defined as something that indicates bounds or limits. In other words, boundaries are what give us, and those around us, clear indicators of where the limits are. The boundaries we set aren’t meant to be cold and controlling. They are set to make sure that everyone feels comfortable and safe and healthy in any environment. This is no different than teaching a small child not to touch a stovetop or a teenaged drive not to crossover into the wrong lane. Boundaries protect. To some there is a tendency to set up too many boundaries and to others setting boundaries feels selfish or even harmful to relationships. Using these four simple guidelines will help establish clear boundaries. First, think about what matters most to you and what you want your life to look or feel like. Next, reflect on your time management and be honest about your limits and desires where time is concerned. Third, when setting boundaries in a relationship, be very clear and honest about what you want to do or do not want. Fourth, once you’ve set your boundaries firmly in place, make a plan. Give yourself a window of time to measure the request against your boundaries and make the best choice for you. If you are realizing that boundaries might be helpful, but you are unsure of which areas and relationships need them, ask the Lord to highlight them. He can and will show you where to begin. Setting and maintaining boundaries might seem scary at first, but the end result is healthier and happier relationships.
