Ephesians 4:23-24 Instead, let the Spirit renew your thoughts and attitudes. Put on your new nature, created to be like God - truly righteous and holy.
We carry attitudes and prejudices, old hurts, unforgiveness, maybe even bitterness about past situations which God says we are needing to let go. Are we willing to let Him help us do it?
We may have thought one way about something so long that it’s worn a little groove in our brains but God tells us to be renewed in our minds in order to know His perfect will. The trouble is, we get so familiar with our thought patterns or the way things are that we find it hard to let things go but we can.😊
Just as it was time for our family tricycle to go to make some space in the garage, so it’s time for other things to go in all our lives to make room for the new plans God has for us. We need to clear some space for new ideas, new thoughts, new dreams, space for God’s peace and joy instead of resentment or hurts. God never designed us to have the space for both!
Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to show us those things, both physically and mentally, He thinks are holding us back, cluttering us up, and let Him help us to let them go, even if we have had them over 40 years!!😊
Romans 12:2 ...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.
