When you choose to come to this Jesus of the Bible for forgiveness and follow him, your life changes. The Apostle Paul says that we are to give our bodies to God…because of all he has done for you. And he said that we are not to copy the behavior and customs of this world, but to let God change you into a new person by changing the way you think. Sounds good. But…what do you do? Have you ever thought about a list of good things you can do to work with God in this transformation that he is making in you? I ran across a list that someone put together that I thought was pretty good. Here’s what was recommended by one person…
1-Go to church.
2-Be kind.
3-Take care of your body.
4-Stop carrying your past.
5-Love the life in front of you.
6-Honor your boundaries.
7-Read your Bible.
8-Know Jesus.
9-Keep showing up for the people you love.
10-Pray often.
It sounds like a pretty good list to me. And if you keep going doing all this stuff, I bet God will continue to transform you into the very image of Christ. Keep the list and see how well you are doing all these things. Here’s our Bible verse for today…
Romans 12:1-2 NLT 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. (2) 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.
Remember I'm praying for you,
