Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God.
2 Corinthians 2:15
NLT Bible
Most fragrances have lingering and lasting effects. Someone walks into a room with a special scent and everyone gets a whiff of the beautiful aroma. This is how our lives should be as followers of God. The things we say and do should be as a fragrance rising up to Him while reflecting His love, kindness and compassion to those around us.
This Christ-like aroma should emanate from us at all times and in every situation. People should be affected by our countenance and our actions should rub off on them. We need to do some soul searching to see what fragrance we're giving off as believers. If it's not a Christ-like fragrance, we need to draw near to God and rededicate our lives to Him.
Thank you Lord for Your love. My desire is to leave a lasting and lingering effect on those I interact with. Help me to radiate Your love and grace. I love you, Jesus. Amen!
Be Blessed!
Lydia
