Aligning with God’s Will

12 And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.² Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

Transform your mind so that you may clearly hear and follow the will of God. Do not conform to the patterns of this world. Life a life shaped by God’s Truth. Walk in what is good, pleasing, and perfect in God’s sight. Trust God’s plans and that they are better for you. Align your heart with Jesus.
