Romans 12:2 "Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect." ESV
We all start this life by being like the world. When we hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ, and accept Him as our own Savior and Lord, we begin to change and become more like Him. The strong influences of this world make it terribly difficult to keep from going back to it. We can keep our growing conformity to Christ by changing our old ways of thinking. It is in our minds that we choose to reject the worldly life and consistently focus on our God. Then, we will know His will and see the things of God that the world cannot see.
Heavenly Father, help us to get rid of our old thinking that hinders our becoming like Christ. Give us the power to stay focused on Godly things and to turn on backs on the things of this world. In Jesus' name, Amen.
