THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

WHEN YOU LIVE TO PLEASE GOD, IT’S A BEAUTIFUL FRAGRANCE THAT CAPTURES HIS ATTENTION

Are you aware that your life is a delightful FRAGRANCE to God? Consider the effect of a pleasant aroma on YOU. In the spring, when flowers bloom, everything seems RENEWED. The sweet scent in the air signifies that the flowers are vibrant and FRESH. It grabs your ATTENTION and entices you to inhale DEEPLY the lovely FRAGRANCE.

God CHERISHES this same SENSATION about you! He ADORES delightful scents, and when your life is lived to please HIM, it becomes a beautiful AROMA that seizes HIS attention. Just as the springtime scent indicates to YOU that the flowers are THRIVING, so does the fragrance of your LIFE show that Christ is thriving within YOU. It brings JOY to the Heavenly Father! When you next encounter a refreshing SCENT, remember that your LIFE is a fragrance to GOD. Take comfort in knowing He is CONTENT with a heart that pursues Him. As you PERSIST in this pursuit, you will EMBODY that sweet aroma, and you will witness His magnificent BLESSINGS in EVERY aspect of your LIFE.

Today’s Scripture:

“For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which exhales] unto God…”

2 Corinthians 2:15, AMP
