DAILY READINGS: 2 Kings 4; Jeremiah 37; Hebrews 9:1-14

For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish. 2 Corinthians 2:15

My sister-in-law was standing in front of me at a family picnic when she suddenly turned around to face me. With a puzzled look she exclaimed, “Oh, I thought it was your wife.” Why had she thought that? Because my wife and I had been in each other’s company earlier and her fragrance was on me. Does the fragrance of the Lord Jesus' helping hand, His loving heart, His healing touch or His encouraging word pervade our presence wherever we go? —Jerry Proctor

Rescue the perishing, care for the dying,
Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave;
Weep o’er the erring one, lift up the fallen,
Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save. —Fanny Crosby
