Romans 12:1 "Therefore, 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 act of worship." Paul wrote to believers in Rome and told them that their bodies should be living sacrifice given to God as the altar of commitment. Giving yourself in commitment to Jesus Christ and His cause isn"t something that you do in a passionate act of surrender. It's something you have to do every day as you say, "Lord, I"m Yours! Whatever you order today I will obey."

A great picture and verse ~ I thought of this one:
1Co 3:16 -
Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
