Conformed or Transformed
Everyone experiences the pressure to conform to the standards and practices of the world. Especially the young who are so impressionable. But even those who are older are persuaded by those in positions of power and influence.
We have a choice to either to buckle under and be led by those destroying their own bodies, minds, and souls, or look to Jesus, the true nonconformist, and allow ourselves to be transformed by the renewing of our minds.
If we are to conform, let us conform to the image of Jesus, "For those whom He foreknew, He also predestined to become conformed to the image of His Son, so that He would be the firstborn among many brethern" (Romans 8:29)
For that will require a true transformation of the inner man, and we can demonstrate what is the good, acceptable, and perfect will of God!
