A life offered to God.
An invitation to offer our everyday lives to God in response to His mercy.
My desire is to offer my whole life to God as a living sacrifice—my heart, my gifts, my words, and the way I love others. Romans 12 begins with His mercy: this is a response to grace, not a way to earn it. I want the beauty of my life to point beyond me to Jesus Christ.
A prayer
Lord Jesus, thank You for Your mercy. Shape our hearts, renew our minds, and teach us to honor You in our everyday lives. Amen.
Faith in action
Choose one ordinary act of service this week. Offer it to God in gratitude rather than as a way to earn His love.
Therefore I urge you, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service. Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.
