Renew Your Mind

 

     A fresh start. A new beginning. A transformed heart. A blessed hope.

 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come. The old has gone. The new is here! 2 Corinthians 5:17

     Born again! All things have now changed. Let’s turn our thoughts to match what God believes about us. We no longer think and act like the world once we belong to Jesus.

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is-His good, pleasing and perfect will.  Romans 12:2

     It may seem impossible to figure out God’s will. Does it help to know that His will is always best? His will for our lives is not only good. It is pleasing and perfect!  The words above explain how we get there. We renew our minds with God’s word. And then we ask the question. Is this in God’s will? Would God be pleased with this direction in my life? Does He want more, expect more, yearn for me to find more in life?

     He can change our direction, re-focus our mind, and start us on a fresh path. He is waiting for you and me to renew our minds and follow and trust. And it is good! It is pleasing! It is perfect!

Jesus,

Help us to discover the plans You have for us. We do get scared. We do lose our way. We do fall apart and there You are. Even when we don’t know what to do and we want to give up, You never do. You are the God of second chances and new beginnings. And here we are again.

Amen
