Law 6: The Law of Evaluation
You need to evaluate the effects of setting boundaries and be responsible to the other person
this does not mean one should avoid boundaries because someone responds with anger or hurt
Difference between Hurt and Harm
Story of Sandy p. 96
Law 7: The Law of Proactivity
reactive explosion of a person after years of compliance leads to a fracture in relationships
to love our neighbors as ourselves, we should establish proactive boundaries instead of reactive boundaries
“This is where you are able to use the freedom you gained through reacting to love, enjoy and serve one another.
Proactive people show you what they love, what they want, what they purpose, and what they stand for.
These people are very different from those who are known by what they hate, what they don’t like, what they stand against, and what they will not do.”
Law 8: The Law of Envy
This is longing for things or character traits outside of your boundaries.
Its not a sin to want something, but envy makes a person insatiable and dissatisfied.
Instead of using and cultivating the gifts a person has, he or she longs to be like so and so.
Law 9: The Law of Activity
This is seen in taking initiative in life, responding to invitation and pushing ourselves into life.
Many boundary problems occur from a lack of Initiative or passivity.
In this parable, those who succeeded were active and assertive.
God will not do for us
“the sin God rebukes is not trying and failing, but failing to try.
Trying, failing and trying again is called learning.
“
God does not reb
Law 10: The Law of Exposure
The Law of Exposure says that your boundaries need to be made visible to others and communicated to them in relationship.
Not communicating boundaries causes relationships to suffer
Example of the compliant wife
They idea here is to keep things in the light so darkness and resentment have no chance to grow and destroy relationships
