1 Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. 2 Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Responding to the Word
I love play-doh! You can be as creative as you want and it even smells good. The Bible doesn't talk any about "play-doh" but does talk about how we live our lives in the world. This world will try to shape you. Through TV shows, music we listen to and even the books we're encouraged to read. If we're not cafeful, we will start walking, talking and acting just like everyone else. What's the solution? God's Word! The Bible tells us how to live our life. How to love one another and help in times of needs. How to make good choices even when times are tough. So don't think too much about the word "play-doh", but instead think about "transformers!" Be "transformed" by the Word!
Praying through the Word
Father, your word tells us to live in this world and not of it. That's pretty tough sometimes. Please allow the Holy Spirit to lead and guide each of us in our journey of life. How I thank You and love You for your creation. The land and sea and all that is in it. But Father, I love You most of all. In Jesus' Name, Amen
