Transformation

'Spirit can only be known by spirit.' -1 Corinthians 2:14 msg

God is not just about a transformation of mind.

He is about a transformation of spirit.

When we truly ask God to become a part of our lives, He puts the spirit of Jesus Christ inside of us- His spirit.

For these desires are no longer unobtainable to us- God, show us more of Your ways, help us to understand more of Your heart.

'Isaiah's question, "Is there anyone who knows God's spirit, anyone who knows what he is doing?" has been answered. Christ knows, and we have Christ's spirit.' -1 Corinthians 2:16 msg

This transformation of spirit is not a one-time process, not something to which a person can one day say 'I have arrived!'. It is a constant process of change that comes from truly opening up your heart to be one with Him.

As our spirit changes, so do our thoughts and experiences. We become more in tune with God, and He is able to more and more speak to us and bring new revelation into our lives, through His word, through worship and prayer, and through the seemingly mundane everyday.

Connect in with God on an intimate level and your world will begin to open up.

After all, He doesn't want you to stay the same.

Some people can live their whole lives and not see any change. They find themselves back in the same place, struggling with the same thoughts and issues again and again.

The size of their world never changes. It remains confined to their own experiences, confined to 'self'.

I don't want to stay the same.

'Don't become so well adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out.' Romans 12:2 msg

I want the size of my world to continue exploding. I want to see less from my own perspective and more from the perspective of the one who knows it all.
