Working on Inner Transformation

Romans 12:1-2 In view of God's mercies, offer your bodies as living sacrifices that are holy and pleasing to God for this is the reasonable way for you to worship. Do not be conformed to this world but continually be transformed by the renewing of your minds so that you may be able to determine what God's will is - what is proper, pleasing and perfect.
God and His perfect will for man - there is nothing else of significance in life except that. the key to all reality is the intelligent human will responding affirmatively to the Will of God. Through faith in Jesus Christ, the believer possesses the indwelling source of God's life from whom he is possessed with joy, fulfillment, and victory.
This is what I want to tap into. Root causes that may be hidden, that go way back, are causing me to be bitter and angry and fearful.. As a result of never dealing with these causes correctly (sweeping things "under the rug," ) my symptoms cause me to be discouraged, depressed and wondering why God won't avenge me.
The next few days will be a study in Inner Transformation. If I can choose to give over to God any root of bitterness, unforgiveness, unbelief, fear, (whatever God reveals to me), then His Life and His Love will flow through me in a new and powerful way. As a result I will experience an intimacy with Him that I have not know before - experiencing more of His Love not only for myself but unconditionally for others.
