Because of His mercy

Romans 12:1-2, "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. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God."


The last sentence of Romans 12:1-2, "That ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God," is the driving principle in my life. The rest of the passage tells how and why. I'm inspired by the idea that God would use me to prove that He is good, and His will is good. It is cheerful. And exciting. And meaningful. Not only that, but His will is satisfying, acceptable. His will doesn't leave anything out. It is perfect.

To God be all glory.
