Perfume

This morning the air had such a lovely perfume, aroma. It was sweet from the white flowers blooming mixed with the smell of fresh earth and wet grass. Oh, I had to just sit back with my eyes closed and enjoy the gift. Every once in awhile bringing the aroma of coffee to my lips.

I am convinced that God speaks through the different aromas that he send my way daily. A whiff of wine makes me think of my sister and her joy of food and fine wines. She has a lovely blog about travel and food. But it is the essence of wine that brings her to me. https://www.lunchandluggage.com/

Where as the smell of gas, metal and exhaust makes me think of my brother who has a love of cars.

I have a collection of soaps from different places I have stayed. My favorite came from the time we were in Jamaica. When I pick up that soap and take a deep breath I can relive that week. I know strange habit of collecting soaps from different places. I am not talking about buying soap and keeping it. It is the soap I used, the hotel soap. I am sad that so many places are stopping the use of bar soap and going with the liquid dispensers.

So the perfume of the woods this morning made me think of the aroma of God. He is reminding me…that He is always surrounding me with His love.
