A Reflection On Transformation

When I want to have a renewed mind

What should the renewed mind of the believer look like? When we are transformed, we will begin to understand our time, our treasures, and our talents differently. We will stand in a dramatically different place than we once stood, and our perspective will reflect the change. Our eyes will gaze on new heights, and our desires will lean in new directions. We are a new creation; we will learn to live as one.

If you have lost sight of the radical nature of the new mind or the constant call of the new creation, let your mind be transformed and your life be renewed again and again. It is a lifelong process for the believer, a work that God will complete the day He takes you into His Presence. Never settle for the status quo. And never lose sight of the upward call of God out of the ways of this world and into the heart of His will.

Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

Romans 12:2
