We serve a god of boundaries in his limitless capacity, endless creativity and boundless existence. He still chose to create boundaries.

He still had vision for what was good, right, pleasing, and perfect.

And as children made in his image, we are to live, think, and create as he does.

In a world marked by busyness from seemingly infinite opportunities,

it's important now more than ever for us to create boundaries.

May you find freedom and joy this week as you receive vision and set boundaries

under the leadership of the Holy Spirit.

Welcome to the First of Team Podcast. Our verse for today comes from Proverts 29 verse 18.

Scripture says, where there is no prophetic vision, the people cast off restraint, but

The world we live in constantly bombard us with attempts to define who we are and what we should do.

Advertisements tell us what we need.

Our jobs tell us how we should spend our time and find a sense of

self-worth. Our families and friends often define us by what we've done or said in the past.

And even our churches sadly define us according to how

we can best meet the needs of the church, rather than getting to know who we truly

are. But we serve a God who knows us even better than we know ourselves.

You discern my thoughts from afar.

You search out my path and my lying down and are acquitted with all my ways
