When it comes to our stories, they are either going to be Redeemed by God or Repeated by us.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So we created a process that can help you write out your story and begin this week to invite God into to it to redeem it.  You can download it &lt;a href="http://www.soulcitychurch.tv/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/CraftingMyStory.pdf" title="My Story" target="_blank"&gt;HERE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is good, hard work that is worth you setting and hour or two aside this week.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Remember, when your story is Redeemed, God&amp;#8217;s Glory is Revealed!&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://operationtransformation.org/post/15952986035</link><guid>http://operationtransformation.org/post/15952986035</guid><pubDate>Mon, 16 Jan 2012 11:19:28 -0600</pubDate></item><item><title>24 Hours of Renewing Your Mind</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span class="verse Ps_139_23"&gt;&amp;#8220;Search me, O God, and know my heart: try me, and know my thoughts: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="verse Ps_139_24"&gt;And see if there be any wicked way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting.&amp;#8221;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt; - Psalm 139: 23 -24 &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;What are the 3 biggest thoughts occupying your mind right now? They may be things you&amp;#8217;re worried about, anxious over, occupied with. Be specific.  NOW - Write them down somewhere that you can keep them.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Take 5 minutes to bring each of those thoughts to God in prayer. Tell him what is occupying your mind.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Before you go to bed, pray through each of them one more time. Ask God for his Truth from his word and from his heart.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Now set an alarm on your phone or your computer to go off exactly 24 hours from now.  When the alarm goes off tomorrow, reflect on how God has encouraged, transformed, renewed, and even changed your mind about those things.&lt;/li&gt;
