One of my favorite places to visit is a small town named Julian in the mountains east of San Diego, California.
When I was a kid, mom and dad would take us to the mountains during the winter for hot apple cider, great food and a chance to play in the snow (today I hate snow).
There are many things I remember about our trips to Julian but the thing that stands out the most was the smell. Every time we stopped at that old country store for the hot apple cider I loved the smell of that old wood burning stove. The smell was great. The heat felt great, but it was the smell that has always stuck with me.
In 1 Corinthians 2:15, “we are to God the aroma of Christ”. We are to be that sweet aroma in our praise to our Heavenly Father. The sacrifice that we bring to God in our worship should be a sweet, sweet fragrance.
Sweet adoration
Flows from your children
Glory and honor
And praise are a part of our constant devotion
Love set in motion
For the divine One
Who reigns in our hearts.
