Romans 12:2
And let not your behavior be like that of this world, but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God.
While I was in the process of growth, I experienced many conversation is that it was so often for the people to say that their friend who has become a Christian has changed. The present him is not the past him. Indeed, it is true that a Christian will change in their heart, which is from worse to better. If we did not experience this change in this way, then we need to think about it more and find out what is the problem between this.
Paul on behalf of God has told us that we should not have the behavior like this world, which is greed of money, unfaithful, unlawful, selfish, dishonest, etc. Some of us misunderstood this verse by including the things that God gave us to do, like fashion and trends, money and riches, etc. Some might say, we should not follow the fashion of this world, for it is worldly, we should be poor and don’t earn money, it is the root of evil! But I tell you, CERTAINLY NOT! The verse continuing states we should change and made new in mind, we must not keep our pace from pacing with the culture and trends, and money is very important in God’s point of view and it is GOOD!
As a result we should have Joy, we have the right to choose to be happy or unhappy, without considering external circumstances, we should rejoice in all circumstances! By doing this, we will have the part of wisdom that Solomon had, he said that
Proverbs 15:15
All the days of the oppressed are wretched,
But the cheerful heart has a continual feast.
Plus we should say out the right word in the right time! It is the most wise act that is in my mind, we should be saying out the word that brings healing and building confidence and helping!
From your dearest Friend,
Franco
in love, in sincerity
