There really is a way to transform how you experience everything in life. Beginning right now. Today.
Even with all the aspects that are, and will most likely remain, out of your control--the key to transformation in how you experience life is completely within your control.
This is it: Romans 12:2.
"Be transformed by the renewing of your mind" (NIV).
"Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think" (NLT).
"Be transformed by the renewal of your mind" (ESV).
We are advised to guard our heart because everything we do flows from it-- and we must understand that the war for the heart is fought in the mind.
As you cooperate with God in the renewal of your mind you will find your heart more protected, and your life transformed in ways even more fundamental and better than whatever change you currently wish for.
It's simple, and true.
So how can you change the way you think?
Begin to replace your thoughts with His. One thought at a time.
Here is an easy way to do this:
