Boundaries

"Boundaries" are a very good thing...
A wise set of borders to which we should cling.
Boundaries protect us from others' intent
And guard us lest time is unwisely spent.

Having a boundary becomes as a shield
And keeps us from getting too far afield.
When we abide by what God has shown,
To problems and "fuss" we'll be much less prone.

Changes we carefully need to define,
And sometimes we need to draw a new "line".
Clear definition may save a high cost.
With God's precious wisdom, naught shall be lost.

"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."
Psalm 119:105 KJV
