“Offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to 
God – this is your spiritual act of worship.”

“Be doers of the word, not hearers only and therefore, 
deceive yourselves.”

Our prayer:
“God, make us doers of the Word.  Let me build my house 
on the rock by not just hearing Your teaching, but by living 
it out, by doing.
