Romans 12:1

My Christian friends, God is so very good to us. So I really want you to give your bodies to him. In the old days people used to give animals to God to make him happy. They did it like this. They used to kill the animals and burn them up. But now it is different. You will make God happy if your give your bodies to him while you are still alive, and let him use your bodies to do good things. This is the proper thing to do to show that you follow God.⋮
