Romans 11: 33- 36;  12:1-2

A Hymn of Praise

³³ Oh, the depth of the riches
both of the wisdom and the knowledge of God!
How unsearchable His judgments
and untraceable His ways!
³⁴ For who has known the mind of the Lord?
Or who has been His counselor?
³⁵ Or who has ever first given to Him,
and has to be repaid?^[q]
36 For from Him and through Him
and to Him are all things.
To Him be the glory forever. Amen.

A Living Sacrifice

12 Therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, I urge you to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God; this is your spiritual worship.^{[a] 2} Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.
