Chapter 1 Continued...

What we have learned in Chapter 1 is that boundaries is not just about saying no to something or somebody. Boundaries comes from the very nature of God. God defines Himself as a distinct, separate being, and He is responsible for Himself. See for instance what God tells us about Himself in Genesis 12:2; Jeremiah 3:12; Ezekial 6:9; 36:26.

Our boundaries help differentiate us from someone else and shows us where we begin and end. Our feelings, attitudes, beliefs, behaviors, choices, values, limits, talents, thoughts, desires and loves-all fall within our own boundaries. In which of the above areas do you feel you do a fairly good job of taking responsibility? What area or areas do you need to take more responsibility for?
