Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2 (English Standard Version). Trans = across Form = support, limit, shape As we study God's word, we make it part of our lives. Our eyes go across the page. We find God on the pages. The Bible comforts us when we are sad. David wrote many of the Psalms when he was a young person, alone in the field with sheep. Sheep do not smell good at all! It was a lonely and dirty job, but it was the job David was called to do. He was alone with God across the pasture for the sheep. Later, after he was chosen to be king and anointed he waited for a very long time to be King. He knew God's future plan, but David was hiding in caves and running across the wilderness from Saul for many years. He looked to God for support. God gave support. God can be thought about as a loving parent. Acros
