"...be progressively transformed (transfigured; changed in form and semblance) by the renewing (or: in the renewal; for the making-back-up-new again) of your mind [with other MSS: from The Mind; of the intellect; pertaining to the faculties of perceiving and understanding; of the mindset, disposition, inner orientation and world view] into the [situation and condition for] you folks to be habitually examining in order to be testing and, after scrutiny, distinguishing and approving what [is] God's will (design; purpose; resolve; intent): the good and well-pleasing, even perfect (finished, complete and destined)! (or: = the thing [that is] virtuous, satisfying and able to succeed in its purpose.)"
(Romans 12:2 - JMNT)
I love these phrases from the above passage..."Progressively transformed"..."...from The Mind (capitalized); of the intellect..."..."...pertaining to the faculties of perceiving and understanding"..."...inner orientation and world-view"...
I love that the TRANSFORMATION which Paul was referring to here really is the basics of Mind Power...I love that I know that the bottom line is that all physical reality is made up of vibrations of energy...as we have said many times before, your thoughts are also vibrations of energy, and as the Mind of God or the Mind of Christ continues to function through you in a creative way, you are perpetuating the original Creation of all living things, and are a viable contributor the the expansion of the Universe..I love that...and I love that this truth cannot be dismissed any longer as being simply a concept or a theory...this truth, which many of the authors of Scripture wrote about (whether they fully understood it or not) is a spiritual reality that is confirmed now every day through science, particularly through Quantum Physics...I love how Science is validating Spirituality today, and vice versa...
I love to see my good thoughts manifested...your thoughts are more than just influential, they actually affect what happens to you...they create your reality...to know this is so EMPOWERING...you are not a victim of Creation...you are powerful, more, really, than you even know...most people sleepwalk through their lives, taking little notice of their thought processes...they never think about how their mind moves, about what it fears (and why), what it pays attention to, what it says to itself, or what it ignores... people generally automatically go through the motions of eating, working, talking, worrying, planning, shopping, playing, etc., all with little to no attention paid to how they think, which is unfortunate...I love being aware of who I am, and of how my Mind is affecting things around me...I love understanding my unique, creative place in the Universe...
I love being around people who are curious...people who are interested in improving how they think...I love seekers...I love people who are open-minded, and are not afraid to challenge their mental and intellectual comfort zones...I love discovering truth...I love conversing with those who know about things outside of that with which I am familiar...I love revelation...I love good ideas...I love creativity...I love change...I love evolution...I love it when I see it in myself, and I love when I see it in humanity...
I love using Transformational Mind Power, which is simply directing your thoughts toward a desired outcome...I love that believing is seeing...again, this is Law(s) of Attraction 101...what you focus on you attract...it's just that basic and uncomplicated...Mind Power is understanding these laws, and knowing how to make our thoughts successfully work for us...
I love that I know that...
I love that I have people in my life who also know that, and who want to know more...
I love being connected to people who have tapped into using the Power of their Minds for good...
I love being alive and aware of this wonderful world in which we live...
I love being optimistic about that world, and about the future and evolution of Humankind...
I love that you read this post...
I love you...
My heart is very, very full today...
Love to all...
"...and then to be continuously renewed (or: from time to time, or, progressively made young again) by (or: in; with) the spirit (or: attitude; breath-effect) of your mind (or: from the mind which is you), and to enter within (or: clothe yourselves with) the new humanity (or: the person that is new and fresh in kind and quality) the one in accord with and corresponding to God (or: the person at the Divine level) being formed (framed, built, founded and settled from a state of disorder and wildness; created) within the Way pointed out (or: in union with fair and equitable dealings with rightwised relationships, justice and righteousness; also = in covenant participation) and reverent dedication (or: benign relationship with nature) pertaining to the Truth (or: in intrinsic alignment with reality)."
(Ephesians 4:23, 24 - JMNT)

ReplyDeleteThem endorphins are working today. I know it should have been "those" instead of "them" but I'm just feeling my Mississippi side today.
