Are You Going to Conform or Transform?
Romans 12:2
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind…”
Looking for a personal transformation?
In order to transform ourselves, we need to separate from negative people and find our uniqueness. Lent may be a great time to embrace that challenge by stepping out of our comfort zone and doing something different.
Perhaps instead of ‘giving up’ sweets or beverages, we should consider giving up our ego and expectations. Instead of our ego wasting time festering about what others did or failed to do according to our expectations, we could focus on the needs of others.
Next time the ego wants to lead, let’s try asking ourselves ‘What would Jesus do in this situation’. Then we can follow our hearts instead of our egos, and become another step closer to transformation and renewal.
