![]() “Be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.” (Romans 12:2) Having a relationship with Christ offers us the opportunity to live abundantly. We just need to let go of the old messaging and information and replace it with the power of the word of God. For instance, transform, “I am nothing,” into, “I am more than a conqueror..” Transform an, “I am a failure,” into, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.” “Healthy striving focuses on you. It occurs when you ask yourself, ‘How can I improve?’ Perfectionism keeps the focus on others. It occurs when you ask, ‘What will they think?’ Research, unfortunately, shows that perfectionism hampers success and often leads to depression, anxiety, addiction and missed opportunities, due to fears of putting anything out in the world that could be imperfect or disappoint others.” Brene Brown Personal transformation is the key to abundant living. Let us take our eyes off of people and focus on God.
