Even Our Lord was tempted in all thing yet blameless.Amy St. Pierrehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17954352247487424174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6205879315082389870.post-53028213565536153522009-03-02T12:15:47.148-06:002009-03-02T12:15:47.148-06:00Rom 12:1-2<BR/>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.<BR/><BR/>2 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.<BR/>KJV<BR/>I appreciate the text here and yours describing what it really meams to be a living sacrifice. Many people go through alot of pain,loss,financial difficulties, persecution,mockery, and other things. Jesus said that we are the light of the world, a city on a hill. When we allow God to take us through the press, The name of Jesus is glorified. Our Lord supplies all of our needs during all these times, but he wants us to learn patience. I have learned some avenues of patience, but dont declare that I have arrived to some point where I cannot receive teachings. I love Godly conversation, and blogs. Praise the Lord, and have a wonderful day.<BR/>Evangelist Tony SantucciAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
