The Sweet Aroma of Christ

Bible in a Year: Proverbs 30-31, 2 Corinthians 11:1-15

We are to God the pleasing aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.
2 Corinthians 2:15

Today's Scripture & Insight: . God used him to "spread the aroma of the knowledge of [Christ]" (v. 14). He's gone to be with God now, but his fragrance lingers on in Lometa.

C. S. Lewis wrote, "There are no ordinary people. You have never talked with a mere mortal." Put another way, every human contact has eternal consequences. Every day we have opportunities to make a difference in the lives of people around us through the quiet witness of a faithful and gentle life or through encouraging words to a weary soul. Never underestimate the effect a Christlike life can have on others.

By: David H. Roper

Reflect & Pray
What do you think about the statement, "There are no neutral contacts"? What difference could it make in the way you view every contact and conversation throughout the day?

Fill me, Holy Spirit, with love, gentleness, and kindness toward others.
