Sun // Sacrifice :: Worship

Title:  Reflection of our devotion to God.
 
Offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God – this is your spiritual act of worship. – Romans 12:1b
 
Our bodies belong to God. It’s kind of a strange thought, isn’t it? But that’s what Paul says in Romans. Our bodies are to be a “living sacrifice.”
 
Does your lifestyle…the things you do with your body…reflect that? Consider these questions:
 
+ Do the places you go reflect that you are a living sacrifice?
+ Does your eating & drinking habits reflect a body that belongs to God?
+ Do the words that come out of your mouth reflect a life that is sacrificed for God’s holy and pleasing service?
 
Most of us think of our bodies as a reflection of our personal values…of who we are. But that’s not what Paul challenges us with. Your body is to be a reflection of your devotion to God.
 
Real men treat their bodies as a living sacrifice.

Milo and his family currently live in North Carolina, where he is a staff Chaplain for MAG-14 at Cherry Point, NC. As a staff chaplain, he is responsible for the spiritual well-being of over 1200 marines and their families. He does this by participating in training events, deploying with the squadrons he covers, providing a constant presence of support and working with the command in facilitating general care and response in the face of family/unit emergencies.

Milo and Bethany have been in full-time ministry since 1999, and have enjoyed a wide variety of experiences and opportunities. In 2003, God brought Andrew into their lives, and in 2005 Olivia was the fourth addition to the family. Milo has stated repeatedly that God’s greatest tool in shaping his theology, philosophy of life and walk with Christ has been his family. Woodworking, riding his motorcycle, movies, camping, and time with his family are some of his favorite things to enjoy.
