Understanding the importance of healthy boundaries can reshape your relationships and restore your peace. Boundaries are not about shutting people out but about defining the space where you can flourish and love others without losing yourself. By setting clear limits, you protect your emotional and spiritual well-being, making room for deeper, more authentic connections.

When you guard your heart as Proverbs 4:23 encourages, you’re not just protecting yourself—you’re honoring the life God has entrusted to you.
