by Mark Weinrich

Is fragrance
expressive joy
when flowers
celebrate life?

Is it the sweetness
of incense 
as they praise
their Maker?

Is this fresh,
grace-filled
scent, a sign
of new life?

We are the fragrance of Christ to God
among those who are being saved
and among those who are perishing;
…an aroma from life to life.
2 Corinthians 2:15, 16 (NASB)
