Romans 12:1-2
Finding True Connection with the People Closest to You
''So here's what I want you to do, God helping you: Take your everyday, ordinary life-your sleeping, eating, going-to-work, and walking-around life-and place it before God as an offering. Embracing what God does for you is the best thing you can do for Him. Don't become so well-adjusted to your culture that you fit into it without even thinking. Instead, fix your attention on God. You'll be changed from the inside out. Readily recognize what He wants from you, and quickly respond to it. Unlike the culture around you, always dragging you down to its level of immaturity, God brings the best out of you, develops well-formed maturity in you.''
Romans 12:1-2 (MSG)
1. PACK MORE SMALL TRADITIONS AND LESS BIG OCCASIONS.
''And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today. Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.'' Deuteronomy 6:6-7 (NLT)
2. PACK MORE TOGETHERNESS AND LESS PERFECTION.
''Most of all, love each other as if your life depended on it. Love makes up for practically anything.'' 1 Peter 4:8 (MSG)
3. PACK MORE QUESTIONS AND LESS ASSUMPTIONS.
''If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you.'' James 1:5 (NIV)
4. PACK MORE TREASURE AND LESS TRINKETS.
''...People knew God perfectly well, but when they didn't treat Him like God, refusing to worship Him, they trivialized themselves into silliness and confusion so that there was neither sense nor direction left in their lives. They pretended to know it all, but were illiterate regarding life. They traded the glory of God who holds the whole world in His hands for cheap figurines you can buy at any roadside stand.''
