Be Transformed Quotes

“Bless the Lord “Bless the Lord, my soul; all my being bless [your] holy name! Bless the Lord, my soul; and do not forget all his gifts. Who pardons all [my] sins, and heals all [my] ills, who redeems [my] life from the pit, and crowns [me] with mercy and compassion, who fills [my] days with good things, so [my] youth is renewed like the eagle’s. . . . Merciful and gracious is the Lord, slow to anger, abounding in mercy. He will not always accuse, and nurses no lasting anger. . . . Bless the Lord, all his creatures, everywhere in his domain. Bless the Lord, my soul!” (Ps 103:1–5, 8–9, 22).”

“Words spoken with conviction, in the power of the Spirit, are powerful forces for transformation. They create the reality they proclaim. If this is true of our human words, how much more so with God’s life-giving words of blessing, which are living and actively creative? When received in faith with an open heart, God’s blessings have the power to transform every aspect of our lives and fill us with God’s divine life.”
