Fragrance. Day 22.

I want to smell like God. Weird, maybe, but honestly

I want to have His aroma. Not just a look, or an act.

Rid me of me, and get God.

Sounds simple, and to a point it is.

Give yourself, allow Him to take you over.

For me, it isn't. I get in the way,

Not purposefully, but it's best described as a trip I guess.

Walking through life, saying things like,

"I'm going to be better today."

or

"I'm going to be what God wants me to be today, with His strength of course."

or maybe it's

"Stay positive, stay positive, don't let yourself down."

And then, right as your having a great week,

BING! And you fall on your face.

(This is when I smell, I stink, I reek of myself.)

Then, if your honest, your first thought is something

along the lines of, come on God,

now everyone is going to think I'm not growing,

why can't I be like so-in-so.

I hate tripping, I feel stupid and my face turns red after.

I look around to see if someone saw, and then continue on.

The good thing is God doesn't care.
He sees through to your heart.

As long as your trying, you're going to fail.

He just wants to help you continue on, once you get back up.
Smell that fragrance.
