[Discoveries] 03-30-07 Transformation 2-5

[Inspiration in Your Inbox]

/*Do not conform any longer 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. 
-- Romans 12:2*/

Suppose we could lose our appetite for junk food and only desire foods 
that nourished your body and made it strong. In the same way, God's 
transformation changes your desires. Trying to obey God without inner 
transformation is a pain, to tell you the truth. But, after 
transformation, it is a complete joy because God's desires become your 
desires. This doesn't mean that God takes the fun out of life. On the 
contrary, God puts the fun back into life.

There has been a big debate among Christians over the years: Is God busy 
making us happy or is God busy making us holy?

Let me suggest a different take. God is busy showing us there is no 
difference between the two.

Be encouraged!
Dwight
