CHANGE vs TRANSFORMATION

Change:  The process of becoming different

Transformation: a complete change, usually into something with an improved appearance or usefulness

Change is small and is often rarely noticeable, but TRANSFORMATION is a "complete" 360.  Romans 12:2, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will."

Looking a renewing, transformation must occur. If  you keep doing what you've always done, you'll continue to get what you've always got. Remember, that is the definition of insanity: to keep repetitively doing the same thing without deviating and expecting anything to change. It won't happen.

Work to make a COMPLETE and PERMINENT change. That is transformation. It all begins in the mind. It is a powerful thing. It can will good or bad into existance. When you make up your mind that you want to go from a caterpillar state to the state of the butterfly and you make it happen, it will be perminent. Never does the butterfly go back to being a caterpillar. It becomes magnificent with amazing capabilities.

It may seem as though its not easy to press forward in newness, but it is for the better. Complacency, stagnation, and familiarity are enemies to progression. There are 3 key elements to success: dedication, perseverence, and endurance. This applies both "naturally" and "spiritually".

Make the TRANSFORMATION. It's greater than just a "change"
