The Aroma….

Think of it now… cookies baking fresh flowers clean laundry out of the dryer the beach All of these things bring to mind things that have a definite smell. And not just any smell, but one that we like, one that we experience, one that we can recognize without even seeing it. This, ladies, is how we are to be to the world! We are to radiate Christ through ourselves that everyone can see Him living in us. We are to transform the very air we live in because He lives in us. Please try to remember this as you go about your day. We can help people see Jesus living in us by: giving someone a drink of water on a hot day, sponsoring a child in a destitute land, teaching a Sunday School class, donating our time to help at a food bank, opening a door for someone and smiling at them (and maybe even talking to them). Let's be the fragrance of a merciful God, a loving God, a compassionate God to this lost world! 2 Corinthians 2:14New International Version (NIV) 14 But thanks be to God, who always leads us as captives in Christ’s triumphal procession and uses us to spread the aroma of the knowledge of him everywhere.
