Boundaries keep us inside where we are supposed to be and safe. This means that on the other side of a boundary there is danger. There are boundaries in our physical and spiritual lives. The natural inclination is to put boundaries on our spiritual life and lift the boundaries on our physical life. This is not a godly or spiritual disposition. It is not spiritual to be lazy about work boundaries and call it sacrificial ministry. There is danger here. The work will suffocate the spiritual walk - not feed it. It will suffocate the health if the individual as well as the family. This does not honor God. Jesus did not make Himself accessible to all people all the time. In fact He often left a place when it seemed He was in the middle of His work.
John 10:10 "The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy; I came so that you may have life, and have it abundantly"
