So according to the Bible knowing God makes you smell. Why is that? The Bible doesn’t really say why, but I have a theory.
It’s kind of like going to Starbucks. After you spend some time at Starbucks everyone will know it. Why? Because you will smell like Starbucks for the rest of the day. Seriously…have you ever spent time there? The more time you spend there the longer you will smell like Starbucks. The smell permeates your skin and clothes.
Translation: The more time you spend with God the more you will smell like Him. The more you digest the Bible the more your life will give off God’s aroma. Here is something to think about…how does your life smell to the people you come in contact with? Does your life emit the stink of worry, anxiety, trouble, fear, anger, or negativity. Or does your life emit the pleasing aroma of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, and self control. If you want your life to give off a pleasing aroma then fill it with things that smell good.
Do you smell what the Rob is cooking?
Very nice thought and a complete and clear discussion follows. I smells what you is selling. Nice post(s).
nice Rob!
I can’t stand smelling like starbucks! the same is true of Plaza Azteca!
The worst is The Melting Pot. I feel like my hair smells like that place for days after I eat there.
Nice post(s). I smell ya. I love the story of the lady (term used loosely) annoints Jesus feet with perfume. If you have ever broke a bottle of cologne or perfume, you understand, it would have really smelled…for days. Her hands, her hair…and Jesus. Everyone would have known. Are you wearing your worship?
Thanks Rob, that has given me food for thought. Especially the question about “Does your life emit the stink of worry, anxiety, trouble, fear, anger, or negativity”.
