When Tim shared his latest doctor’s visit with me, it reminded me of how we need to be completely transformed, not still dabble in the world and our old ways, but be sold out for God! Let others see Christ in and through you.
In the Bible verse that I share with you, Romans 12:2, I read how God’s will for you is good, pleasing, and PERFECT! This didn’t say that WE are perfect, but His will for our life is!
Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. Romans 12:2 NLT
So here’s what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life—your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life—and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for him. Don’t become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You’ll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what he wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you. Romans 12:1-2 MSG
Before posting, I search the word transformation within this website. The impromptu interview I had the honor of partaking in just made me smile and motivated me all over again. I hope you will watch the following video of how my new friend, Jeff, transformed from his addiction to a Christ follower:

Also, I reached out to see how Jeff is doing lately. His boss informed me that Jeff’s mom passed away and he is struggling. Will you please lift Jeff up in your prayers. Pray for the Lord to make him strong in his faith, not fall back into the ways of the world, and to give him comfort and peace during this season? Thank you.
Blessings to you and yours,
Stephanie
