A Sweet Aroma

by Verna Cole Mitchell  
3/09/2007 / Poetry

For we are to God the sweet aroma of Christ
among those who are being saved and those
who are perishing.
II Corinthians 2:15 NIV

Like the earth after a spring rain
Is fresh and clean and new,
May my heart cleansed by Jesus blood
Be to my God a sweet aroma.

Like a bouquet of beautiful flowers
Made even more fragrant when crushed,
May my life when troubles weigh me down,
Be to my God a sweet aroma..

Like a precious little baby,
Essence of God's miracle creation,
May I, a child of the heavenly kingdom,
Be to my God a sweet aroma.

Like a loaf of sweet bread baking
Brings hunger to all nearby,
May I bring others to my Lord, and
Be to my God a sweet aroma.
