We need to always test what GOD's will is versus what we want.  So the best way to do this is to ask GOD for HIM to reveal what HE would like us to do through prayer.

And through the reading of HIS word.  And time.  GOD does not give us instant answers as much as we would like that in this world of instant gratification.

Time spent with GOD is the way to find answers.  And GOD will give us the answers we seek if we seek them diligently through HIM.

But this verse starts off with an admonition.  Do not conform to the patterns of this world.  But b transformed through the renewing of our mind.  So how do we renew our minds?  Through the admission of our shortcomings and our sins.

Please do not think we do not sin daily and we are forgiven once and for all.  This is simply not the case.  We have inherited sinful natures.  We covert.  We lie.  We do not do to our neighbours as we would have them do unto us.  We set double standards for others.  Whilst we tolerate our own bad behaviour.  

So through the act of daily reflection, we can look at ourselves through the eyes of GOD and see our daily shortcomings and then, convicted by and through the Holy Spirit living in us, we need to ask GOD to forgive us.

The act of repentance is a renewing of our minds.

Prayer:  ABBA FATHER, I am so grateful to YOU that I can test YOUR will for my life through my admission of my sinful nature.  I humbly ask that YOU forgive my sins today.  FATHER show me YOUR will for my day today and for my life.  I humbly pray this in the HOLY name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.

Stay truly GOD blessed today!
