Becoming

When you see a beautiful butterfly fluttering around, you don’t normally think about all the stages it went through to get to where it’s at. But it did and look what a beauty it became. It all began inside that cocoon.

We are all in the process (stages) of becoming who we are meant to be. None of us have totally “arrived”. We have things we need to work on to be our best self…someone that is being transformed into Gods best, not the world’s standard of being.

Today’s verse helps us see that we are in that process of becoming. It says it happens by “renewing” our minds. That is not a one-time thing. It is something we need to be conscious of every single day. As we become more aware of what and how our thoughts are playing a role in the direction of our life, we can then make the necessary adjustments to think and do right.

It is one thing for someone to say, “you are beautiful” and it is another when they say, “you are beautiful inside and out”. That inner beauty comes from always becoming what God wants you to be.

Romans 12:2 NKJV

[2] 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.
