To thoughtfully and prayerfully read the following:

(NIV) Romans 11:33-36

“Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God!

How unsearchable his judgments,

and his paths beyond tracing out!

34“˜Who has known the mind of the Lord?

Or who has been his counselor?”™

35“˜Who has ever given to God,

that God should repay him?”™

36For from him and through him and to him are all things.

To him be the glory forever! Amen.

(NIV) Romans 12:1-2

“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. 2Do 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.”
