Jdg 11:31  then shall it be, that, whosoever cometh forth out of the doors of my house, to meet me, when I return successful, from the sons of Ammon, shall belong unto Yahweh, and I will offer him up, as an ascending-sacrifice.  (Rotherham)

This bible story, and the comments made, remind me of a scripture found in Romans 12:1-2:

"I beseech you therefore brethren, through the compassions of God, to present your bodies a living, holy sacrifice unto God acceptable,—your rational divine service, And be not configuring yourselves unto this age, but be transforming yourselves by the renewing of your mind, to the end ye may be proving what is the thing willed by God—the good and acceptable and perfect. (Rotherham)

Paul said that our bodies should be a "living" holy sacrifice to God.  It is part of our "divine service" to Him.  What does that mean to us?  How do we present ourselves in this way?  It is something I think about often as I continue in this spiritual journey.  I believe it has everything to do with how we conduct ourselves in this world.
