Transformed by Renewing

Romans 12:2

Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.

NIV

The world has a pattern, a mold it presses upon everyone. Success looks like this. Happiness requires that. Your value depends on these things. The pressure to conform is relentless. But transformation, metamorphosis, the same word used for caterpillar becoming butterfly, comes through renewed thinking. Different inputs create different outputs. What you feed your mind shapes who you become. Conformity happens by default; transformation requires intention. What is renewing your mind?

Ponder This

What patterns of this world have I unconsciously conformed to?

Today's Practice

Replace one worldly input today with Scripture. Let God renew your thinking.

Speak This Truth

I will not conform but be transformed by renewed thinking.
