...let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.
Romans 12:2b
Thoughts control our lives. Our thoughts give birth to our moods, our words, and ultimately our actions. God’s Word is clear that right thinking leads to right living. We are told to stop thinking and acting like the world and to “be transformed by the renewing of your mind.” We are to replace negative human thinking with positive God thinking. What does God want us to think about? All you have to do is look at His Word.
