When I think about a chain link fence I think of isolation, separation, and distance. When I think about those descriptions... I ask myself why I let things isolate me from God, why do I walk away from His promises. Do I think that the fence is something that God choose to place there or did I place it there myself because I didn't want to deal with something? God continually encourages us to break down the fences we put up... sure we can see God still through the chain link fence or barrier that we have placed up because we know that we don't want to go through life by ourselves. But we for some reason like to think that that fence isn't holding us back from anything. When I was on my walk today, I was encouraged to see this fence, my mind started thinking about how we place barriers in our lives. God got a hold of me and confirmed that He doesn't want anything to get in the way of our relationship with Him. A relationship with barriers from being completely together is lacking something. Physical touch, intimacy emotionally, growth spiritually. So this chain linked fence is blocking God from being close with us. He desires our attention, He desires our Hearts to be set on Him, and He yearns for a closer relationship with us. So go get some chain snips and start breaking down the fence between yourself and God.
