What does it mean to "present your body as a living sacrifice" to God?  Are we to follow a bunch of rules now that we're Christians?  How exactly should we go about our lives in Christ?  The truth is amazing!  We're to live with abounding joy and gratitude toward God now that we're saved by faith.  A life of dead-rule/legalistic living isn't the thing.  To love God is to live for Him and to find that, being motivated by that love, we end up obeying Him without trying.  A man or woman that's in love with their spouse wants to please them, right?  They don't have to be ordered around.  They don't need a list.  Love is their guide.  Well, now that God's love has been poured into our hearts, this is our life in Christ (Romans 5:5).  A life of faithfulness will be a life where sin is seen as the counterfeit and destroyer that it is.  A life of faithfulness will produce greater and greater understanding of Christ through the study and application of His word.
