>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
>New International Version
>
>THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY'S VERSE...
>Don't be molded by the world. Wow, isn't that a tough one to obey? 
>It's a reminder that what we think is one of the places of greatest 
>spiritual warfare. Sloppy thinking is more than sloppy, it's 
>dangerous because we are fed messages constantly that distort God's 
>truth and holy values. But rather than being incensed by the world 
>acting like the world, let's be transformed by renewing our minds 
>and doing what Paul said he did -- take every thought, every word, 
>captive for Christ. We often think a tithe is giving ten percent of 
>our money, but an even more vital tithe is giving ten percent of our 
>thought time totally to the things of God!
>
>MY PRAYER...
>O Lord, please guard my soul from pride, my heart from callousness, 
>and my mind from too much focus on unimportant things and not enough 
>on your things. Teach me in my heart what it means to be about my 
>Father's business, especially in the world of my thoughts! Through 
>Jesus, my greatest example of time spent with you. Amen.

The LORD your God in your midst,
The Mighty One, will save;
He will rejoice over you with gladness,
He will quiet you with His love,
He will rejoice over you with singing.
         ~ Zephaniah 3:17 (NKJV)
