Hey, Gabriel Girls!
Today we’re going to talk about fences. Weird, right? Just bear with me. I’m going somewhere important with this.
When you were a little girl, did your parents put a fence around your play area? If your house had a little backyard, there was probably a fence around it. If you didn’t have a backyard, your parents protected you in some way from a nearby street or dangerous area.
Was that fence a good thing or a bad thing? I think you would agree it was a good thing. Why? Because it kept you safe and alive.
Well, did you know that God has a fence, too? That fence is the Bible. It is His Word on what is safe and what is not safe. It is His Book of Fences for your life.
Wouldn’t it make sense, then, to stay within God’s fences, wherever He places them in your life?
For example, one fence God has built around your life is the sexual fence. That fence warns you against having sex before marriage. Why? It is that God doesn’t want you to enjoy sex? No. Not at all. The reason is that God created sex only for marriage, and He knows that if you cross over the sexual fence before marriage, your life will be destroyed.
Do you think God knows what He’s talking about? I would say so! After all, He is the one who created sex in the first place. He certainly knows how it works.
What other fences has God built around your life to protect you? Ask Him to show you. You will come away with one conclusion: God loves you so much that He has put fences in your life to protect you from Satan and his demons. Respect those fences and your life will be filled with joy and blessings instead of turmoil and sorrow.
