and all that is within me,
bless his holy name!
2 Bless the Lord, O my soul,
and forget not all his benefits, Psalm 103:1-2
3 who forgives all your iniquity,
who heals all your diseases,
4 who redeems your life from the pit,
who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy,
5 who satisfies you with good
so that your youth is renewed like the eagle's. Psalm 103:3-5
1. How do I give God what He wants the most? (Relationship with God)àSurrender to God (Romans 12:1)

2. How do I get God’s best for my life? (Relationship with the world)à Separate from the world’s values (Romans 12:2)
2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:2
3. How do I come to grips with the real me? (Relationship with yourself) à Sober in Self-assessment (Romans 12:3-8)
3 For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. Romans 12:3
4. How do I experience authentic community? (Relationship with Believers)à Serving in love (Romans 12:9-13)
9 Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. 10 Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor. 11 Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. 12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 13 Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality. Romans 12:9-13
I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.” John 17:21
5. How do I overcome the evil aimed at me? (Relationship with non-believers) àSupernaturally responding to evil with good (Romans 12:14-21)
Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them. Romans 12:14
