"Greetings in the Name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for 21 March 2013, from Cindi, a Daughter of the King of kings and Lord of lords."
Today's Bible Verse: Romans 12:2 "And do not be conformed to this world, but be conformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is good and acceptable and perfect will of God."
"Be not conformed" means that we as Christians are to stop conforming ourselves to "this world." We are to resist being poured into the mold of thinking, value systems, and conduct of this world. We as believers are not "jell-o" and we don't have to conform to this world. We are to be transformed from with, by God.
We as Christians are to no longer look at life's issues as mere human beings, but we are to let our perceptions be reshaped by God's own revelation of reality in the Scriptures. We as believers should be "transformed" that is, changed "by the renewing of the mind." Spiritual transformation starts in the mind and heart. A mind dedicated to the world and its concerns will produce a life tossed back and forth by the currents of culture. But a mind dedicated to God's truth will produce a life that can stand the test of time. As Christians we can resist the temptations of this world by meditating on God's truth and letting the Holy Spirit guide and shape our thoughts and behaviors.
We as Christians, need to be still in the Presence of God, even though countless tasks demand our attention. Nothing in our life is as important as spending time with God. While we wait in His Presence, He does His best work within us, by transforming us with the renewing of our minds.
We need to stop letting the worries of the world interfere with our Quite Time with God. If we do, it will plunge us headlong into wrong activities, where we will miss out on the richness of what God has planned for us. Do not seek God primarily for what He can give you, BUT remember That He is the Giver, and He is more infinitely greater that any gift that He might impact upon us as Christians. God delights in blessing us His children, but He become deeply grieved when His blessings become idols in our hearts. Anything can be an idol, if it distracts us from God our "First Love."
When we place God as the ultimate desire of our hearts, we will be safe from the danger of idolatry. As we wait in God's Presence, we can enjoy the greatest gift of them all: "Christ in you, the HOPE of GLORY."
