Unless we are consciously committing ourselves
to do God's will and asking for His help, we fall flat on our faces.
The ironic thing is, when we put Him in charge and do His will instead
of ours, which again is the unnatural thing, the results are so
much better. Instead of an extended battle and coldness between
the two of us, we can talk constructively about our feelings and
grow closer instead of wasting all that time and energy doing battle.
Based on God's incredible mercy, which is again
what brings us to that point of trust, we're to offer ourselves
to God as a "living sacrifice" and allow Him to renew
our whole way of thinking---instead of just being squeezed into
the way the world around us thinks.
