Devotion:
Read Romans 12:1.
The title in my Bible for this chapter is “Give your lives to God”. Jesus gave up his life for us - so a living sacrifice is one of love and gratitude. What does a living sacrifice look like? It is daily laying aside our own desire to follow him, putting all our energy and resources at his disposal and trusting him to guide us. All of this we do because of gratitude for forgiveness of our sins. It is also our “true and proper worship” - giving ourselves completely to God and God’s mission in this world every day of our lives. We worship God (or not) by how we live our lives. In the Children's Ministry we call this “Living Loud”. Not only are our lives offering worship to God, we are an expression of God’s love to the world - through us. So, how’s the volume of your life?
