Romans 12:1-2 I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. 2 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.

This past Wednesday night as a student ministry we walked through these scriptures. It was a great night looking at how we could live a life of sacrifice. The thing that I noticed as I was studying and getting ready to teach our students was the word “renew”. For us to live a life of sacrifice, we would first have to learn to renew our minds daily. That is the key to walking with Christ and living a life of worship. We have to be in God’s word daily. When we begin to read His word, we draw closer to Him. In those moments we begin to see that our life is not our own. We were bought with a price, so in turn, each day, we should sacrifice certain aspects of our life to seek after the will of God. His will for our life is good and acceptable and perfect! So start each day with one goal in mind: Dig into God’s word!
Have a great week,
