FRAGRANCE



Dr. F. W. Boreham tells of a visit to a town in the South of France. A number of women passed him, evidently going to their homes from their factory or place of occupation; and as they passed, he noticed that their garments were fragrant.

The reason, he ascertained, was that they were engaged in preparing scent from flowers & it had distilled on their clothes.

Those enjoying Christ's presence & engaged in presenting Him to others cannot but transmit His fragrance.

2 Cor 2:14-15 (GNT): “…God uses us to make the knowledge about Christ spread everywhere like a sweet fragrance.  For we are like a sweet-smelling incense offered by Christ to God, which spreads among those who are being saved and those who are being lost.”

“The true Christian is like sandalwood, which imparts its fragrance to the axe which cuts it, without doing any harm in return.” - Sadhu Sundar Singh.
