Serving the Lord!

"I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.” Romans 12:1-2

Our Christianity is expressed in love toward God as well as in love toward our neighbor. These working together are spiritual acts of worship because through them we are serving God. This should not to be considered as a heavy demand, but rather those done with a willing heart, mind and spirit in love. Christianity requires living it, not only believing and thinking about it, but Faith expressing itself in love and obedience to the Word of God with Jesus Christ being Lord of every area of our life.

The Apostle Paul in this chapter gives guidelines for living as a redeemed people in a fallen world. Therefore: As a result of the work of grace, having received the gift of faith, it is expected that we become living sacrifices because we possess a new life in the Holy Spirit. That we may be able to follow Jesus daily laying aside our own human desires. This we endeavor to do out of gratitude that our sins have been forgiven through the Blood of the Cross of Jesus Christ. A living sacrifice of love without hypocrisy!
