WALLS

Walls are intended to keep things in OR keep things out. Walls can be good things. In fact, Nehemiah was a man who was burdened because the Walls were down and knew that God's children were at the mercy of the world due to the walls being in ruins. So there is a protective need to have walls around us. However, walls can also be bad, for when we build them around us and don't let things in that need to come in-we can miss out on what God has for us. God doesn't want us to build a wall around our hearts to keep good things out. That is why for ALL walls there must be gate...a way for the good to get in, but also a protected entrance so the bad doesn't come in as well. Walls....good and bad. Which ones have you built...? Are you just keeping stuff out...or are you a gated community, alert and watching what passes through the gate, but open to what the Lord wants to come in? ALL FOR YOU
