The Power of Christ’s Fragrance
As we walk through life, we leave behind a trail of influence, impacting those around us. But what kind of scent do we emit? Is it the fragrance of Christ, or something else entirely?
The Scent of Love and Acceptance
Imagine walking into a warm and inviting home, filled with the aroma of freshly baked goods. The smell alone creates a sense of anticipation and hunger. But it’s not just the scent of baked goods that we’re talking about. It’s the fragrance of Christ, spreading love, peace, and kindness wherever we go.
A Heart Full of Jesus
When we’re filled with the love and gentleness of Jesus, we become vessels for His presence. We bring acceptance and caring to those around us, creating a hunger for Him in their hearts. It’s not about our own abilities or strengths, but about allowing the Holy Spirit to fill us with power from above.
Sharing the Fragrance of Jesus
So how do we share this fragrance with others? It starts with a simple prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to fill us with the abundance of all that Jesus is. As we’re filled with love, gentleness, and acceptance, we’ll naturally radiate the fragrance of Christ. And as we interact with those around us, we’ll bring hope and light to their lives.
A Prayer for Today
Father God, I thank you for the gift of your Son, Jesus. Help me today to have a heart full of His love and gentleness, acceptance and caring. Fill me with the power of the Holy Spirit, so that the fragrance of Christ will permeate wherever I go today! In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
