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.
