As humans we are constantly putting up barriers be it physical or emotional to protect ourselves from others or just to keep others out. We also do not realize is that we put up barriers that keep us away from God. This barrier is called sin.
To break through a human barrier can be challenging at times, but it can be done and there is usually no one right way to do this.
To break through the barrier of sin that keeps us from God cannot be done by us alone. In fact God knew this and sent his Son to die for our sins. So there is only one way to break that barrier and that is through the blood of Jesus Christ. However, some think that this can be achieved by doing good works.
We are told repeatedly throughout the Bible that there is only one way to reach Heaven and that is through Jesus Christ. This doe not mean we should stop doing good works, that is the furthest thing from the truth there is, but one must acknowledge that deeds alone is not sufficient to earn you entrance into Heaven.
So take down those barriers not only to the people around you, but more importantly to God and His will for you. Learn to accept Jesus Christ as the Son of God and do His bidding here on Earth. Yes that was very easy to type, but not so easy to put into practice.
I pray that if you have erected barriers, that you are able to recognize this and drop them before it is too late. I pray that God will help you tear down those barriers that are keeping you from both interacting with other humans and Jesus Christ. I pray that God will soften your heart to hear and understand His word.
