| "Arg Mae" ... Come to church with me! |
Her fragrance announces her presence. While she faithfully cleans, wipes, sweeps, shines and disinfects, I smell her! She greets me with a hug as I take a deep breath and say, "Ahhh, el olor de Jessie, huele muy bien!" But, more than the smell of cleaning products, she emits the sweet fragrance of our Father, God. From the moment I met her, I knew we would be sista's. She has a constant smile, a passion for worship, a heart for the lost, she is full of wisdom and she laughs in the face of turmoil ... literally!
I thought of "Jessie's fragrance" today when I was pondering being saturated ... Rain saturates the ground, tears saturate my pillow, coffee saturates my bread, grocery lists saturate my mind, paint and stain have been saturating the base, manly odors saturate our house ... Today I was contemplating what is saturating my soul? Is it good things, things that are right, lovely, noble, good and true or is it the lies of the enemy trying to crush my hope? As I spend time in Father's presence, it's His sweetness that saturates my soul, drowns out the lies of the enemy and exudes, emanates, radiates and even oozes from my human inadequacies ... What is saturating your soul?
My hearts desire ... You are able ... Saturate my humanness
This is one of my new favorite songs, learned it in Spanish and realized it's also in English! He is bigger than any mountain that I face, He is faithful, He is on the throne!
