Happy Transformation Tuesday! I sadly have no new transformation stories to share with you today, but I'm quickly going to share a few thoughts. Most of our sharing on Transformation Tuesday comes from pictures showing the physical changes in our bodies while we are on our journey to be happier and healthier.
Today, I want to talk about a different type of transformation. I have always loved this verse found in Romans 12:2.
Here is how I sum it up:
The world if full of enticing, pretty, tempting ideas that persuades us to engage in those thoughts and that lifestyle. And I'm not saying there is nothing good in the world and we should isolate ourselves from anyone who has different beliefs, but we also don't have to conform just to feel like we belong. God wants to transform us into a new person by changing the way we think. Helping us to realize that just because the cover of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit edition shows a beautiful model, that is a worldly perception of beauty. We don't have to fall into the trap that we need to do drugs or get drunk every night just to have fun. God wants to change our minds away from the standards the world has put in place and make us see the standards He wishes for us live by; being loving, giving, compassionate, self-controlled.
So let's not only celebrate our physical transformations on Tuesdays, but remember that it is okay to not do what everyone else is doing. Let God do a transformation in you by renewing your mind everyday on things that are good and pleasing to Him.
