“Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect.”
– Romans 12:1-2 (NASB)

In 1974, Burger King came out with the slogan, “Have It Your Way.” As many of you know, it was a very successful campaign, not because it spoke to our need for a burger done just the way we want it. This was much deeper. It spoke to our belief that life should be about me. After all, I deserve it.

So, should life be about us, our desires, our agenda, etc.? Scripture tells us that as believers, our lives are committed to God. So, instead of having our way, we surrender to God’s way, which means we are to renew our minds by taking God’s thoughts and plans — His ways. So be encouraged. When you study the Word of God to live, you are seeking those things that are above.
