RENEW is a devotional book about personal change. We want to change for the better and change in ways that honor God and empower us to get the most out of life and benefit others. Here is a foundational Scripture that we will consider on several occasions. "And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God." (Romans 12:2) Transformation is the process of growth, maturity, and positive change. Becoming a Christian was the foundation and beginning of a life of growing and changing. Someone can build an airplane and put a pilot uniform on a person, but until that person is trained, learns how to control the airplane, and takes the controls, he cannot be certified as a pilot. A Christian is more than a title, surroundings, and a "uniform." Jesus called us disciples, which means "students" or "learners." This is the attitude we should adopt. Learning produces the best kind of change. According to what Paul wrote, we are "transformed" or changed by what happens in the mind. Specifically, we want to experience a change in thinking and understanding that helps align ourselves with God and with the best experiences of life. This devotional book will focus on the mind in light of the benefits of renewal and higher thinking. The change that produces the greatest personal progress and the change people will see, is the change that happens in your mind. As Paul said, transformation happens when the mind is "renewed." This devotional book shares the biblical and practical principles for change that empowers a better life for yourself and others Each daily lesson is followed by a Reflection Question and a challenge to commit to an action item for the day. _________ TABLE OF CONTENTS Day 1 What is the Mind?
