INTRODUCTION
God has made our minds so beautifully intricate! What fascinates us and draws us into contemplation can vary widely from person to person. The one thing that is for certain is that we have been gifted minds that must be protected from the dark things this world throws at us. God has given us Scripture and His Holy Spirit for that exact reason!

HAVE A VOLUNTEER READ Romans 12:1-2
Transformation is not only possible; it is the declared goal for each one of us! God desires to take us from brokenness and darkness of mind and circumstance to the amazing transformed life and mind that He intends for us.
HAVE A VOLUNTEER READ Hebrews 4:12-13
Scripture is sharp. It is designed to penetrate. It stabs where we may be uncomfortable being stabbed but that is only to kill that which is killing us. It cuts where we may not want to be cut, but that is only to surgically remove what is ugly and toxic. This is only possible when we allow the word of God to go from the pages of the Bible into our minds and out to our hands and feet. That is how lives are changed!
APPLICATION
PRAYER
Pray that God would renew and refresh your mind with Scripture this week.
