JOYCE MEYER WRITES ON 4 THINGS YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR PERSPECTIVE ABOUT IF YOU NEED TRANSFORMATION IN YOUR LIFE

Key to personal transformation is 'learning to think like God thinks' — Joyce Meyer
To embrace transformation, Meyer says people must first change the way they think about these four things:
1. God
"It's so important for us to know who God really is," she stresses. Meyer says people need to know that God loves them very much, and he is "not an angry God" who is "harsh, hard, sharp, or pressing." In fact, God is "comfortable, gracious, and pleasant," and when people finally understand just how much He loves them, "then you'll have hope that the things in your life that need to change can be changed."
2. Ourselves
Meyer says people who don't like themselves are definitely going to face difficulties in every area of their lives. "Don't demand perfection from yourself. No one is perfect, and no matter what we do, we usually don't think it's enough: We don't pray enough, work hard enough, study the Bible enough..." she says. The good news is, according to Meyer, is that it's okay even if people will never be enough, because God will always cover for them.
3. Trials, or the hard, painful things we go through in life.
People can find comfort in the Bible verse Habakkuk 3:19, says Meyer, because it talks about God's guidance and strength. The verse tells people that God is going to help them "walk [not to stand still in terror, but to walk] and make spiritual progress upon [our] high places [of trouble, suffering, or responsibility].
4. The level of importance we put on what others think about us.
Lastly, it's inevitable for people not to be affected by what others do to them or say about them. But the more they focus on pleasing God instead of pleasing others, Meyer assures people that they'll become what God created them to be and do what He is calling them to do.
