What was I thinking?

It's been said ~ A new identity means a new mentality, and a new mentality means a new destiny.

It's true!  We have the power to change our present circumstances and our future outcomes ~ by changing the way we think. At the core of how we think, is who we think we are.

I love what Paul states in Romans 12:2.  He's not talking about thinking positive thoughts, or happy thoughts ~ but about aligning our thoughts with God's word; who He says we are, and what He says we can do.  It means being changed from a caterpillar into a butterfly.  Permanently ~ no going back!

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

Here it is from the Message Bible


It's a process and will require hard work, but we can do it!
 Isn't He good to us!
