Don’t move boundary stones

Hosea 5, 6

Boundary stones are like surveyor’s stakes … they identify property lines. On this side is my property, and on that side is my neighbor’s property. Cheaters move the stones so they have more property. This is stealing!

Subconsciously, we are all looking out for ourselves. We want more. We want the best. Our gain is someone else’s loss. God, however, watches the boundary stones, and who loves themselves more than their neighbor. Jesus said, “Love your neighbor AS yourself.” So, you leave the boundary stone where it is because it’s right for both of you.

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. 2 Cor. 8:9
