Contemplation
“When you offer yourself to God, you no longer live for your own desires but for His will. To be a ‘living sacrifice’ means to let every thought, word, and action be pleasing to Him. Transformation begins when the heart is renewed by grace, and the mind learns to love what God loves.”
+ St John Chrysostom
