## Resource

Today, Pastor Colin thoughtfully explores Romans chapter 6, verse 13, inviting us to offer our present, imperfect lives to God, just as they are, with all their challenges and imperfections. In this episode titled "Giving as Much as You Know of Yourself," Pastor Colin shatters the illusion that we must wait for life to be perfect or our circumstances to be ideal before we can serve God effectively. He emphasises the value of offering our real lives, with all their messiness, into Jesus's hands, who accepts us as we are and transforms us. Colin draws upon biblical examples such as Joseph and Moses, who offered themselves to God right where they were—in a prison or a desert—not waiting for perfect circumstances. He issues the inspiring call that, like Jesus who offered himself in all aspects of his life, we, too, can glorify God in all that we do, in our daily routines at work or at home.
