Renewal Of The Mind
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God,
that you present your bodies a living sacrifice,
holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service.
And do not be conformed to this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind,
that you may prove what is that
good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
Romans 12:1-2
Let each of you look out not only for his own interests,
but also for the interests of others.
Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus…
Philippians 2:4-5
Lord, help us by Your mercies,
To present our living bodies, A
holy and acceptable sacrifice,
As our reasonable service.
Grant us a renewed mind
To leave our worldly ways
behind; And accept, prove and
fulfill Your good and perfect will.
In a world of self and greed, That
ignores those in need; Teach us
to think as Jesus thinks; To love
people and not things.
Make us channels of blessing
To those who are lost and suffering;
That as our selfishness cease,
We may have Your perfect peace.
