Romans 12:1
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
What Of Today’s Verse…
Because God went first and sacrificed what is most precious to him to save us, he can ask us to surrender ourselves to him. Only one problem: The cotton-picking sacrifice wants to keep crawling off the altar.
Let us Pray:
Holy and Righteous Saviour, I want to surrender my life, my body, and will to you. But I confess there are little things (and maybe some big things), that I keep from ever placing on that altar. Things I don’t want to give up. To the best of my ability, I pledge today to live for you in a way that leaves nothing outside your Lordship and control. I offer you me – all that I have and am – to be yours today. Through Jesus. Amen.
Words of Wisdom
I Am Healed
In communion with God, I am healed wholly and completely.
Dear God, I turn to Your soothing, healing presence in moments of prayer and meditation. With every breath I take in, I deepen my experience of Your presence, and with every breath I release, I let go of any sense of separation from You.
In communion with You, I am healed emotionally, mentally, and physically. Despite any outer symptom, I know a healing is taking place because I am created by You and You are here with me now.
I think of others with compassion and love, knowing that Your healing presence is active within them also. I breathe out and release any concerns I may have held. I breathe in and affirm their health and well-being, their wholeness and strength.
“Peace, peace, to the far and the near, says the Lord; and I will heal them.” -Isaiah 57:19
