Within a day or two of my previous post, God expanded my understanding even more on the matter of transformation for the believer. God showed me that the soul is made up of three parts as well; our mind, will, and emotions. Our mind produces thoughts, our will produces choices, and our emotions produce feelings. Our mind has been deceived by this sin-ridden world, our will has become rebellious, and our emotions become controlling. At salvation, our spirit becomes alive and the Holy Spirit indwells us. We become new. Our thoughts, choices, and feelings want to change. The Holy Spirit desires to work through our soul to bring fruit to the body. The spirit and fruit of the body is God's part. Our part is to renew our minds and surrender our will and emotions. We have to make those changes and allow God to rewire our thinking to please Him and glorify Him. WOW! What an incredible concept. It is amazing how everything works together for a purpose. I am thankful for the love He has shown us just so we can know Him. I am so excited learn more, and ready for God to reveal what I need to change next. It won't be easy, but it will be worth it.
