I hear the Lord say:

Dear daughter, you are seeing how abiding in My peace and joy is transforming your inner thoughts and outward expressions. My peace in your heart is transforming your mind and emotions. You have a new perspective, a new way of thinking – this is what is coined a ‘renewed mind.’ This is the doing of the Holy Spirit as you surrender to His will.

No one can abide in Me unless first denying your ‘self’ and your ‘old man.’  You have laid down the ‘self’ on My altar and I have created a new self in you – one that reflects My image.  As you experience this new joy and this new peace, and see how walking with Me in trust and surrender removes stress and strife, you crave more of it.

Events in life may rock your boat but I am here to keep you on course.

So we do not lose heart. … our inner self is being renewed day by day.
2 Corinthians 4:16   ESV
