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.
[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.
Not a single saved person has the right to deny God the pleasure of our bodies sacrificed on His altar.
As we move through this life, God is in the business of maturing us. As we grow, His demands on our life change.
Through the experiences of life God grows us and matures us so that when His call comes and His will is revealed, we are equipped and ready for whatever He calls us to do.
Right now we’re pilgrims and a strangers, living on foreign soil. I need practical help for my day to day walk with God.
Just a closer walk with Thee.

“I am weak but Thou art strong; — Jesus keep me from all wrong. — I'll be satisfied as long — As I walk, let me walk close to thee.
Chorus:
“Just a closer walk with thee, — Grant it, jesus, is my plea. — Daily walking close to thee, — Let it be, dear Lord, let it be.
“Thro’ this world of toil and snares, — If I falter, Lord, who cares? — Who with me my burden shares? — None but Thee, dear Lord, none but Thee.
“When my feeble life is o'er; — Time for me shall be no more. — Guide me gently, safely o'er — To Thy kingdom shore, to Thy shore.”
