Sometimes the days go by and our actions take on rote practices; we fall into patterns, and forget to tangibly connect to those that surround us. We need to reach out and unceasingly refresh our minds, souls, hearts and bodies, opening ourselves fully to God, and be present for all those around us.

Romans 12:2 - 'Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is--his good, pleasing and perfect will.'
