Week 5 Day 5 Sensory Experience

The Living Sacrifice ( Romans 12:1-2)
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. NKJV

Think of ways to connect with this verse, using your 5 senses (taste, sight, touch, smell and sound).
eg Elizabeh Gadd's photographs capture for me the contrast between the human body and the glimpse of our sublime God found in nature. See them here.

Food for thought (written by Zane)
Here is a re-enactment of the Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) sacrifices. Take note of the reverence and care that went into the sacrifices, and the importance to the people.

What do you see, hear, feel regarding the animal sacrifices, that you can relate to the passage our passage regarding living sacrifice?
What are comparisons and contrasts can you draw?
