And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:2
Some think this verse points out an alternative lifestyle. The intent of this verse is to set us free from this world and its ways. Those who take up the command will have their lives changed in ways they’ve never known before. They will experience Christ living in them.
Had a harder migraine attack just after midnight Tuesday morning. Still reeling from it. The migraines are so difficult to live with. That’s why I’m so thankful I have the opportunity to become like Jesus, to know Him through the Word. It’s how He gives me the power to live ABOVE the migraines and other challenges in life. Praise God!
When I think of all that Jesus has done for me, I am so thankful. Who would not want the opportunity to become like Jesus? Well, according to the Bible, those who love the darkness more than the Light, more than Jesus. What a contrast…Light and darkness.
Choose Jesus, choose The Light. Trade in your old self for the opportunity to become like Jesus in all your ways. Or choose the darkness and perish by continuing to live in the world’s ways.
Thanking and praising God in all things,
Mark
