New Patterns

Commentary: We are encouraged to develop new patterns that begin by renewing our thoughts. We should find ways each day to reinforce new habits focused on grace, forgiveness, and mercy. These new habits may require sacrifice and letting go of areas in our life in which we feel most comfortable.

Scripture: Romans 12 

1Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual[a] act of worship. 2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
