Transformed and renewed

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post.

Romans 12:2 says, "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."

It's about staying focused on God. It's easy for us to get distracted by so many things, but we must use as much discipline as possible in order to meditate (reflect, ponder, think) on the things of the Lord. For those of you on the right road, stay on it and don't veer off from the positive road you're on. That's exactly what the enemy wants us to do, but don't get sidetracked, stay focused. It doesn't matter what comes against you, God has your back. Focus is the key though. Focus is the key to transforming our minds and continuously renewing it by reading God's word and keeping an on-going relationship with Him. You know what that means? It just means seeking His face (Matthew 6:33) and talking to Him about absolutely anything you need to. His door is always open.

The point is, to stay on our A-game ok, which means being in a state of transformation and renewing for the better. In other words, some of us will become new creations in Christ and others, renewed creations in Christ. It depends on where we are in our spiritual walk. Either way, necessary godly transformations and renewals of our minds are paramount to staying in the will of the Lord. And staying in His good and pleasing, perfect will. It's an on-going process that should never end.

I ask, because I'm just wondering if anybody feels like me -- free like me. Free as an eagle. Free as can be. That's right, out with doing business the old stale way and in with a fresh new operation. It's a shifting happening in the atmosphere of Sharon's life and I'm moving on to the big and awesome things God has for me. What do you say for yourself? What are you speaking over your life? What it is for you? For me, I am no longer afraid to go out in the deep end. I am no longer afraid to fly higher, I am no longer concerned about what I have or do not have, and I am no longer concerned about what anybody thinks or says. Who the heck cares anymore? I don't. Because God tells me he doesn't give me a spirit of fear or timidity ( 2 Timothy 1 :7) , but He gives me a spirit of love, confidence, power, self-control, and

She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa
