When was the last time you did something that you know wasn’t pleasing to God? Ask yourself why you did it? Did you do it knowing in advance that it was outside of God’s will.? Was it just a slip up? Maybe you deliberately said something to hurt someone. Perhaps it’s a habit you can’t seem to break…..the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.

We will not achieve a completely sinless life in this world, but God has given us some help to conquer sin and become more like Jesus.

Everything you do in your life passes through your brain first. So it makes perfect sense that you must retrain your brain if you want to refresh your flesh. You will never be able to change your lifestyle permanently until you renew your mind.

Paul makes it very clear in Romans 12:2 and Philippians 4:8 as well as other passages that your mind is the key to changing your lifestyle. Jesus’ mindset was one of humility (Phil. 2), and we are told to have the same mind.

God will renew your mind, so that your life will be transformed into the image of Jesus, if you allow Him.

What could be better!

Love,
Terry
