Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old things have passed away. Behold, all things have become new.
that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit, and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.
being confident of this very thing, that he who began a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.

A prayer
Original writing, not a quotation of Scripture.
Lord, I want my life to actually look different, not just for a season but for good. Change me from the inside, not just my behavior but the desires underneath it. I know this won’t happen overnight, so give me patience with my own slow progress and grace for the setbacks along the way.
Surround me with the right influences and help me walk away from the wrong ones. Finish the good work you started in me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
