Be a smelly Christian

2 Corinthians 2:14-16 (The Message)

In the Messiah, in Christ, God leads us from place to place in one perpetual victory parade. Through us, he brings knowledge of Christ. Everywhere we go, people breathe in the exquisite fragrance. Because of Christ, we give off a sweet scent rising to God, which is recognized by those on the way of salvation—an aroma redolent with life.

I was reminded of this passage last week when noticing smells around me that pervaded the air without really being able to discern the source and it has continued to be on my mind this week. Hopefully I am spreading an aroma that is worthy of Christ wherever I go.
