THE SACRED FRAGRANCE : DISCOVERING THE AROMA THAT DELIGHTS OUR LORD

We are called to be the "aroma of Christ," illustrating how our lives can serve as offerings to God. Just as sacrifices in Scripture were pleasing to the Lord, our actions and choices can reflect Christ's love or succumb to worldly distractions.
The duality of aroma highlights that the fragrance of Christ is sweet for those who embrace the gospel, while it becomes a stench for those who reject it. This distinction urges us to evaluate where we seek satisfaction: in fleeting worldly pleasures or in the enduring fulfillment found in Christ.
The temptation faced by Adam and Eve serves as a reminder of the deceptive nature of sin, which often appears enticing but leads to spiritual emptiness.We are challenged to prioritize our relationship with God, recognizing that true sacrifice involves aligning our desires with His will.
The example of the woman who anoints Jesus with perfume illustrates total devotion and surrender. Her act contrasts with worldly distractions, prompting us to consider what we are willing to sacrifice for our faith.
Ultimately, we are encouraged to embrace our identity as citizens of heaven, making choices that reflect our commitment to God. By prioritizing our relationship with Him and seeking to be the aroma of Christ, we can draw others closer to Him, offering our lives as pleasing sacrifices to our Father.
