"Don’t copy the behavior and
customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing
the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is
good and pleasing and perfect." (Romans 12: 2 NLT)
God accepts us as we are, but longs for
us to become more. When we learn to cooperate with Him and seek His will as the
supreme good of our lives, then we can believe what He already believes about
us -- that we can be vastly more than we are. We need not forever be the
victims of our earlier conditioning. God has put within us the power to change,
to overcome our handicaps, and to grow.
