Last week,
"Through us, God brings knowledge of Christ. Everywhere we go, people breathe in the exquisite fragrance. Because of Christ, we give off a sweet scent rising to God, which is recognized by those on the way of salvation - an aroma redolent with Life. "
Our lovely jasmine plant has had me thinking.
I want Jesus to permeate my interactions with people...just like the sweetness of our "lady" wafts through our immediate neighborhood each eve. And i want to spread the undeniable fragrance of Life... and fill up my spaces, and my conversations so that there would be no room for the hopelessness of death. And i want to be poured out, extravagantly spent for Jesus sake and for love of His name.
"Be imitators of God therefore, as dearly loved children, and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God." Eph. 5:1
