Day 9 Possessing the Land
To possess this promised land of transformation we will have to arrange our lives differently....For now the question is this: Do I believe transformation can happen?

Welcome to our online discussion of Dallas Willard and Jan Johnson's Renovation of the Heart in Daily Practice: Experiments in Spiritual Transformation. Each day, Monday-Friday, I will post the title of that day's chapter and maybe an excerpt from the chapter. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, will be to read that day's selection from the book then click on the comment link and add your $.02 to the conversation. If you are a highlighter maybe just share what you highlighted and why you highlighted it. Maybe something really resonated with you as you tackled that day's experiment, share that with us. Maybe, as happened with me, the first time I read the book, God will reveal something to you. Read the comments that others leave, respond to each other, ask for clarification, let someone know you connected with a comment they left. My hope is that working through this book together we will get much more out of it, we might not only grow in Christlikeness but grow closer to each other. If you have any technical difficulties please email me at tkay3atcharterdotnet.

The thing that I admire most about Jesus and would most like to emulate in my life is His ability to speak words of truth and grace.
Transformation is like a double edged sword for me I am always willing to help out the less fortunate and the annoying because I was one of them and people did it for me and now I would like to do the same for someone else.Now on the other hand I am not so willing,understanding or conscious to change some of my ways I have been doing them for so long seem to justify why I do them and not realize until its to late whats been done. I am so greatful that God allowed me to see this weakness and i am willing to work at it!!
Mikey-
The God of the Universe is more than able to work through your long time ways.
I am praying right now that God would break through some of those old ways (for you and me) in an Amazing God kinda way and continue the process of transformation
