WE ARE CHRIST'S FRAGRANCE...

The Bible says we are the aroma (fragrance) of Christ. Let's spread that fragrance around!

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

After Glow

Quote >"Hours and flowers fade away, But memories and fragrance lingers on. Always leave behind pleasant memories.

The Bible says we are the aroma (fragrance) of Christ.

 2 Corinthians 2:15 For we are to God the aroma of Christ among those who are being saved and those who are perishing. As we walk through this day may the beauty of Christ radiate from us and may we carry His fragrance!
After Glow 
I’d like the memory of me
to be a happy one.

I’d like to leave an after glow
of smiles when life is done.

I’d like to leave an echo
whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times
and bright and sunny days.

I’d like the tears of those who grieve,
to dry before the sun
of happy memories
that I leave when life is done.
~ unknown~2 Timothy 4:7
I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.


Kill ego and Save Love(Author Unknown)


Love And Ego
************
Once upon a time there was an island , where all the feelings lived together .
One day there was a storm in the sea and the island was about to get drowned.
Every feeling was scared but Love made a boat to escape.
Every feeling boarded the boat.
 Only 1 feeling was left.
Love   got down to  see who it was...
It was EGO.
Love tried and tried but ego wasn't moving also the water was rising.
Every one asked love to leave him and come in the boat, but love was
made to love.
At last all the feelings escape and Love dies with ego on the island.
Love Dies because of EGO
So, Kill ego and Save Love

~Cheerful people live longer in our memory~‏



Hi...


Let's take a potted Rose plant and place it on the window. And let's turn all the roses to face our room. But as the Sun rises up, we'll find the roses turning towards the sun. It seems to prefer to look at the light than the darkness within the room.We too need to quickly turn away from gloomy, sad situations and look towards brighter situations.
We need to be people who radiate joy and cheerfulness.
Cheerful people who bring joy and smiles our way are hard to forget and live longer in our memory.
We remember joy more readily than sorrow and we like to be around cheerful people.
Let us be cheerful people too and do all that we have to do cheerfully.
ROMANS 12:8, ".....if it is encouraging, let him encourage; if it is contributing to the needs of others, let him give generously; if it is leadership, let him govern diligently; if it is showing mercy, let him do it cheerfully."
Even as the Rose turns towards the sun, which is it's source of energy, let us look towards the SON OF GOD (JESUS OUR SAVIOR) for our source of joy and strength. Let the Glory of God reflect on us & through us.
Be blessed,
Julie

Spread some cheer around...


Hi.....
It's always good to receive a word of encouragement, it's nice when someone reaches out to comfort us, help us.
It feels good to be appreciated.
And today let's spread some cheer around.
Let's put a smile on someones face who made us smile.
Let's encourage someone who encouraged us.
Let's appreciate people who bless us.
Let's send a note to our Pastors,
telling him how much we are blessed by his weekly word and exhortations and prayers.
Let's pray for someone who prayed for us.

Will you spread some cheer around???
Stay Blessed,
Julie

~Let's guard our tongue~


Hi....
Today is God's gift to us...
~~Let's learn to control our tongue this day..
What sharp and hurtful words we speak to those around us so...easily!
~~Let's ask God to keep us from saying unkind, unlovingwords to others.
~~Let's keep our mouths shut when we feel like saying something unkind.
~~Let's ask God to set a guard at our lips.
Sharp critisism, hasty judgements, unloving words affect relationships..
Let's love one another like Christ loved us! It's just this one life we walk on this surface earth. May a difference not just by all you do,
But by all you say too~~
God Bless you,
Julie

Has someone interrupted your plans?


Proverbs 19:21 Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the LORD's purpose that prevails. 
Hi...
Has someone or something interrupted your plans?
Trust God!
May be you were planning on taking up a new job, visiting a new place or planning to do something but suddenly someone may come by and upset our plans or for some reasons your plans failed.
Don't panic..but TRUST GOD
When plans are changed, He has a better way to accomplish HIS WILL in your life.
God knows what's best for you..
JERE 29:11,"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Though right now you don't see anything clear just give your hand in your Heavenly Father's hands & let Him lead you one step at a time.
Just continue to hope & trust in God to give you the best & He will surely reveal the plan HE has for you.
 Prov 23:18 There is surely a future hope for you,
       and your hope will not be cut off.
