That's some good stuff right there...

Romans 12:2
Don't copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God's will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

"God is for us, Dear One. Even His commands are for our safety, liberty, and blessing (Deut. 10:13). Yes, God calls us to surrender our own agendas on the altar of His will, but Romans 12:2 reminds us that God's will for us is good, pleasing, and perfectly suited. When all is said and done, the biggest sacrifice of our lives will be when we chose our own way and forfeited God's pleasing will for us. " 

"Promised land theology becomes an earthbound reality only to those who cash in their fear and complacency for the one ticket (belief) out of their long-inhabited wilderness."

-Beth Moore
