"But thanks be to God,
Who in Christ always leads us in triumph
[as trophies of Christ's victory]
and through us
spreads and makes evident the fragrance
of the knowledge of God everywhere,"
2 Corinthians 2:14
How's it going out there for everybody today?
Everything good? No?
Everything a little,
Oh, I dunno, maybe not bad, maybe just a little zany?
A little off?
Not to fear!
We got the victory!
Who's got the victory?
We got the victory!
That's right!
Uh-huh! Uh-huh!
And we smell good too!
Ok, Ya'll! I haven't flipped really!
Today I have been just a little scattered,
amongst several different tasks.
Not really feeling like I am giving my best to most of them,
(But some, I think I hit out of the park!),
which is ironically what I wanted to post about today (distractions) -
but, that will have to keep until tomorrow! :)
Anywho, the scripture above, came in a devotional,
in my e-mail last night.
And at the time, I didn't have time to read it,
I was hangin' with the hubby!
But, the scripture must've just snuck in,
and grabbed a hold of my heart!
This morning it jumped to the forefront,
when I was reading a post on this new blog I have found,
and I have wanted to post it and share it with you all every since.
It has been the dickens of time to get here long enough to post it though!
I don't have any deep thoughts to add to it, I think it speaks for itself!
I like it so much, I am gonna end with it!
Hmmm, what's that you're wearing? It smells good!

To God be all the glory! Rejoicing with you sister. I laughed aloud as I read it. I pictured you standing and moving your arms in a circle doing the victory dance! I am with ya! AMEN

Yes. I want to wear the fragrance of Christ.
I heard someone say she wanted to wear Jesus in such a way that when she walks into the room people notice Jesus and wonder, Mmmmmm. What is she wearing?
That's what I want!

Don't be mad, I was thinking of a cheer from highschool--V-I-C-T-O-R-Y, Victory is OUR battlecry!!
You know, though it fits. If we apply it to our lives. Kind of like popular songs (usually love songs) and something will make me stop and say, "We should say that to God!"
One thing I don't think is realized enough is the sacrifices offered in the OT were often offered with incense and they were a pleasing aroma to the LORD.
God is a God of all our senses!!

A Stone Gatherer, Thanks! He does smell sweet, doesn't He? & He ABSOLUTELY IS our Victory!
Sharon, That's right! V-I-C-T-O-R-Y! We'll just keep on truckin'!
Denise, yup it does! :)
Leslie, you got the right picture! That's EXACTLY what was on my heart! Just a little victory dance, this post has stuck with me all week! I sing that little ditty & just tell God thank you for being my victory! LOL!
Hey there, Ally! Yes He is!
Hey, Carole! Missed you! Glad to have you back! Thanks for taking that time to catch up! I LOVE your new Writing Room!
Renee', you are way too sweet, Girl! Thank you so much! & Congratulations to you! I will post on that in the a.m.
Regina, you are SO right! That's what I am working on! Everyday!
Karen, You are WAY too good to me!
Thank you!
Karen, I LOVE that! That presence of God is something I pray for everyday...I guess we all want this same thing....
Julie, You're 100% right! He SO is a God of all our senses! As a fellow Home School Mom, I love considering that we are made to comprehend though all those many varied avenues! & we STILL can't absorb ALL of Him! LOL! That cheer/dance thing is EXACTLY what I was picturing too! Been doing it all week! Don't know what's got into me!
Ya'll are great fun! Thanks bunches!
