Romans 12:2 (NRSV) — 2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your minds, so that you may discern what is the will of God—

what is good and acceptable and perfect.

 

Romans 12:2 (The Message) — 2 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.

 

God's perfection for me is perfect in every way. Amen.
