Proverbs of a 41 yr old man
You can have more than you've got because you can become more than you are. And success isn't something you pursue it's something you attract by becoming attractive. -John Rohn. Heard this quote and it made me think of this Scripture. Our lives are a Christ-like fragrance rising up to God. But this fragrance is perceived differently by those who are being saved and by those who are perishing. To those who are perishing, we are a dreadful smell of death and doom. But to those who are being saved, we are a life-giving perfume. Amen. The reason we are more than conquerors is that we have this treasure in jars of clay. What we have living on the inside of us is greater than he who is in this world. Christ in us the hope of glory makes us more than what we have in the natural. We can become more than what we are, we are kings and priests unto the LORD Jesus. And by us living out the High Calling of Christ we attract those who are perishing with the life of Jesus in us. Desperate souls see the success of the power of the Gospel in us. They want what we have, and we can lead them to the abundant life God is calling people to. Gods favor on us is attractive to the slaves of this world. Living as a son of the Living God is attractive to those who are being saved. It's a life-giving aroma that we share to a perishing world.
