06.05.23 The 4th Practice for Developing Healthy Personal Boundaries as You Wait

4. Maintain Godly Accountability and Support

During your preparation period, choose relationships that support purity. Remain connected to believers who encourage obedience to God’s Word and reinforce spiritual standards. Identify trusted individuals who can offer guidance and support as you navigate relationships and boundaries. Remain open to wise advice as this provides strength when temptation increases or when your thoughts lack clarity. See what Proverbs 27:9 says (NIV): “Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart and the sweetness of a friend comes from their earnest counsel”.

Seek relationships where people welcome counsel, practise accountability sincerely while valuing truth and receiving correction with humility; as that makes boundaries easier to maintain.
