"Making God’s Desire a Reality"
Romans 12:1-21

The words from Romans 12:1-2 remind us that God has called to a life of purpose, a life of holiness, formed to be like Jesus.

“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. 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.”

This call to holiness is followed by the practical application of how to live this life in Christ. The words from the apostle Paul remind us of what God’s desire is for us and what He expects of you and I. Let’s determine to make God’s desire a reality.
