Renewing Your Mind

Romans 12:2 (New International Version)


2Do not conform any longer 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.

The world is full of prevailing standards and customs, many of which are not good in any respects to allowing you to be the "best' you that you can be. And, because of this they are opposite of what God's Word says. Remember His Word is everlasting and never changes. So by choosing not to conform to the 'negative' and counterproductive standards and customs of the world, you choose instead to be open to God's ways --- His good, pleasing and perfect will. By accepting and embracing God's ways you are renewing your mind, which in turn opens the door to changing the way you do things --- old ways for new ways. A renewed mind changes behaviors --- it all starts with the mind.
