renew

17 So I’m telling you this, and I insist on it in the Lord: you shouldn’t live your life like the Gentiles anymore. They base their lives on pointless thinking, 18 and they are in the dark in their reasoning. They are disconnected from God’s life because of their ignorance and their closed hearts. 19 They are people who lack all sense of right and wrong, and who have turned themselves over to doing whatever feels good and to practicing every sort of corruption along with greed. 20 But you didn’t learn that sort of thing from Christ. 21 Since you really listened to him and you were taught how the truth is in Jesus, 22 change the former way of life that was part of the person you once were, corrupted by deceitful desires. 23 Instead, renew the thinking in your mind by the Spirit 24 and clothe yourself with the new person created according to God’s image in justice and true holiness. (Ephesians 4:17-24, CEB)

Renew the thinking of your mind.

Do not be conformed to what makes you feel good, or what everyone else is doing.

Keep your focus on right and wrong and choose right, and follow after where God is leading you.

Do not practice corruption or greed. Do not do something simply because it feels good. Truly live the life that God has called you to.

Do not be conformed to the world, but be a beacon of hope for all of the world.

Love People. Love God.
