Changing me.
Growing me.
That’s what God is doing.
Paul tells us in Romans 12, “Don’t copy the behaviors and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.”
God is in the process of gradually transforming me from the inside out by changing the way I think. As I continue to read, study and memorize God’s word, his truth takes over more and more of my brain. His Word is becoming the basis of where my thoughts come from.
I’ve had people ask me how I can be so bold in talking and writing about my faith all the time. It doesn’t seem bold to me – it’s how I think.
Paul also says to us, ” Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.”
Love this!
It’s like tuning in an old radio – as I dial into the signal, God’s voice becomes clearer and more distinct. God is aligning my thoughts more closely to his. One of my favorite prayers is asking God to help me love the things he loves and hate the things he hates.
When my thinking is lines up with God’s, he can reveal his plans and purposes – his perfect will.
I’m still a work in progress – the transformation is ongoing. But the mystery of how to clearly hear God’s voice is solved –
get close to him.
Love you, Abba Father.
