What's good and acceptable and perfect?

There is a considerable amount of pressure being placed on me to get off the computer!  Maybe we do need the third computer after all.  I think that we all like the "big" computer more than the "little" computer.  It's crazy how we discuss these things.
Anyway, Rachel is downstairs reading out a verse in the Bible.  They've been studying Romans 12:2.  She explains that the verse is saying that it is OK to stand out and don't just fit in because it's the easiest thing to do.  The actual verse (in the Revised Standard Version) is:
Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may prove what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
What a great verse.  I'm very grateful that my children are studying verses in the Bible and making up their own minds about what it means to them.
