FRAGRANCE

It is a delightful mystery how an aroma can transport me to a different place. Fragrances bind with events, places and people. A passing scent can return me to my great grandmother’s home or a market in Costa Rica; awakening a lost memory or activating an emotion. Biblically, fragrances are attached to many events from the smoke and incense of the Tabernacle to our intercessory prayers, to gifts to the Newborn King, to our daily witness before the world. God has bequeathed unlimited ways for us to learn, grow and experience fullness of life. O Lord my Creator and Sustainer, I stand in awe of You, I marvel at Your ways.
