2 Corinth 2:14
Now thanks be unto God, which always causes us to triumph in Christ, and make manifest the aroma of his knowledge by us in every place.
CS Lewis said it well:
“Every day we have opportunities to make a difference in the lives of people around us through the quiet witness of a faithful and gentle life or through encouraging words to a weary soul. Never underestimate the effect a Christlike life can have on others.” What do people say about you after you leave a conversation or spend some time together? Obviously, we don’t know since we are not around to find out. But we all have been in places where others are not spoken of in a positive manner. Christ in us will help us to leave an impression that will speak to our positive influence and life. May we always leave the presences of others demonstrating love, grace, and mercy. We don’t always need to agree, but we always need to have the “smell” of Christ left behind the wake of life and conversations.
