...by the renewing of your mind

Romans 12:2 'Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is - his good, pleasing, and perfect will.'

The idea of Gods will has been on my mind a lot. I am a recent graduate, and stuck without a career. I easily get depressed and confused on what and where I am supposed to be in life. This morning I was reminded of this verse and of the importance of our transformation and walk with God. I love how all of my problems drift away when I am able to focus on God and recognize his power and sovereignty.

All of my minuscule problems don't seem so daunting when I get clear glimpses of the character of God.

Luckily,
we have a God who asks us to cast our worries and anxieties on him who only asks that we walk humbly with him, do what is right, and love mercy.

This morning I am resting in my dependence on him.

praise him

Over the next few weeks leading up to Valentines Day I am following Courtney over at Women Living Well in her task of praising her Husband in five specific and different ways each week. The first, is to show praise verbally. Even boyfriends like to be praised : ) This morning my boyfriend came over, and made me a fresh vanilla latte before church. He is so considerate and sweet. Praise God for lattes and the men who make them.
