God wants us to be transformed people with new minds, living to honor and obey him. Because he wants only what’s best for us , and because he gave his son for us to make our new life possible, we should joyfully give ourselves as living sacrifices for his service. Wise Christians decide that much worldly behavior is off limits for them.We must go even deeper than just behavior and customs it must be firmly planted in our mind. “Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.” Only when the Holy Spirit renews, reeducates, and redirects our mind are we truly transformed. (Romans 12: 1-2)

The Bible is clear - your own body is God's temple. Your spirit needs and wants closeness with God. You want to know the living God personally, not as an idea or as a concept, not as a distant monarch.
You can draw near to God through prayer, worship and Bible meditation. Just know this, you probably need more prayer in your life. Make worship your top priority. Bible meditation may include verse memorization, songs and quiet personal reading. The Bible is the Word of God for you. Use it every day and you will draw nearer to God (reference Hebrews 7:19)
