More about Boundaries

I have enjoyed listening to the students at Rockbridge Seminary describe the value of putting boundaries in their lives. This is something that is important for our Preachers Meeting participlants to learn to do also. We are not always successful at this, perhaps, but for the sake of our health and for the sake of our families, this is an important thing to do.

The president of one of the companies/ministries that I worked for in the past taught on this subject. He said for us to learn this statement:

"At no time
will your problem become my problem;
for, then you wouldn't have a problem;
and, I like helping people with problems!"

The more we can learn to do this (without being calloused), the stronger we can be for the one to whom we are trying to minister.
