Romans 12:1-2 A Living Sacrifice to God And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect. How would you describe your body? Would you use the words “living sacrifice”? Do you view your body as God’s? Or do you compare your appearance to others’ and worry about what others think of your body, primarily because you want to be noticed or to feel a sense of approval? The purpose of your body, in fact the purpose of your life, is to glorify God by loving him and loving others. It’s not about you. It’s really not about you. It’s about laying down your life—heart, mind, soul and body—all for the sake of God’s kingdom.
