Living Sacrifice...

"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." (Romans 12:1)

This passage is one I generally come back to when talking about our whole lives being an act of worship. We are to offer our bodies as sacrifices...this is our spiritual act of worship. To me, this means that we are to be in a constant state of worship. Everything we do with our bodies...eat, drink, work, etc...should be holy and pleasing to God.

Psalm 34:1 says that we are to lift God up at all times, that we should always have praises on our lips. The whole "at all times," and "always" stuff can be difficult. But, it's possible. It is a realistic goal for us to turn every moment of our day into an act of worship.

What do you need to do to become a living sacrifice? What needs to happen in your daily life in order to "always" and "at all times" be lifting up the Lord in praise.
