Transformed


Do not conform any
longer to the pattern
of this world, but be
transformed by the
renewing of your mind.
Romans 12:2




God calls His children to live holy lives.
This requires both the Holy Spirit's help
and our cooperation. We should begin with
our thought life because our actions are
based upon what we believe.

Daily time in the Word will keep our resolve
strong. Through scripture, the Holy Spirit
will transform our mind and strengthen our
inner being to bring about needed changes.
If we neglect Bible study, we leave ourselves
open to the influence of the world and our
"flesh," neither of which cares about godliness.

Becoming holy is a lifelong process that requires
understanding Gods ways, plans and priorities--and
adopting them as our own. It means letting the
Spirit develop within us the mind of Christ.

    Thank you so much for your kind comments! I LOVED this post and it really spoke to my heart. Don't you love it when that happens? :)
    You certainly are "so blessed." I so wish Brooke and Marianne lived closer. We would make a great team! They are wonderful women and you did an amazing job as a mother.
    I love you blog. It's going to be a daily read now.
    All my love,
