“Walk in love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.”
An aroma is a pleasing scent. It fills us with joy and warmth. A fresh baked tray of cookies, a pot of coffee, a hint of lavender in a bath, the smell of fresh air in nature... all these things are so pleasing and life-giving. God tells us to offer our lives up as a pleasing aroma to Him. We do that by walking in love, pouring into others' lives, and daily focusing our hearts and minds on God! It's easy to get busy and caught up in our to-do lists, but it's so important to take time to connect with God so that our spiritual lives are a pleasing aroma to Him. In this way, we are more equipped to love on others, too.
Journey on!
