Christians are set apart from the world. When it comes to the body, the world should be able to know you are set apart. God gave you your body, so you should dedicate it to purity, holiness, and worship of God. That does not mean that you can never get married. You can. You and your spouse can keep your bodies dedicated to God and each other in a form of worship within marriage.
Your body is a living sacrifice that does not live like the rest of the world. You are transformed once you become a Christian into a new being in the same body. Your mind is what is transformed and you work on it until you get your eternal body. At that time you will be complete.
To dedicate your body to God is to remember that He is your creator. He sent Jesus to pay the high price for your freedom. Your body is the home of the Holy Spirit. You are a representative of God in this world. That makes you special and yet no more special than anyone else. You just have the privilege in knowing and understanding the truth.
To have your body dedicated God, is there anything you need to change in your life? Think about it. Pray over it. Listen to the Holy Spirit as He may direct you toward some changes: big or small. The point is that your body should glorify God every day through purity, acceptable, love, and light. The world should see the Holy Spirit in you. You should not completely fit in.
Adopt the attitude of Jesus. He was sent here to serve, teach, and to be the ultimate sacrifice for all mankind. He initiates faith that is perfect. He did all this because he loves you, me, and everyone else. He lived out truth that still exist and will never stop existing. This truth should make you feel special, intrigued, loved, and chosen. Your salvation is everything. Let your faith be your motivation and never give up.
