It’s a brand new year, but many things currently affecting our lives didn’t magically disappear at the stroke of midnight…they followed us into the here and now. That’s why this Scripture is so important…emphasizing that we need to renew the spirit of our mind, and in the process understand the transformational process we must undergo in our spiritual journey with the Lord. In the end, we need to align our thoughts and attitudes closer to the Will of God. So how can we do this? I’ve found many times throughout my life God did not change the desperate situations I found myself in…instead, He changed how I regarded them. It’s the glass half-full vs the glass half-empty mental position. There are so many things in our life we have absolutely no control over…consequently, it’s only our attitudes concerning these things we can actually change. This new year, God may not change the difficult situations and circumstances you find yourself in…but what He can do is help you gain His eternal perspective and bring you closer to Him.
