Leaving the old garden behind and cultivating another garden become an emblem of our journey through life, marked as it is by both bitter losses and sweet new blessings.

Download or read book FRAGRANCE OF WORSHIP written by Robert Soverall and published by Xulon Press. This book was released on 2017-03-10 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When you consider smells, aromas and fragrances, many things come to mind. Memories are awakened, appetites are peaked, and other senses are heightened in response to fragrances. There's nothing like the fragrance of a flower-filled garden, a clean, well-decorated home, a new car or a fine cologne or perfume. The Bible teaches that the Christian's life is like a sweet smelling fragrance to God. Jesus was accepted by the Father because of His successful and sacrificial life on Earth. When we emulate Christ we smell sweet to the Father. Worship is a part of that sweet-smelling life and when the sacrifices of a contrite heart and a broken spirit are laid before the altar, the Holy Spirit blesses them and us. That sweet odor then rises to the throne room where God resides. Is this the essence and aroma of your personal worship? Does it bring you into God's presence? Your worship can be even sweeter; for the Bible teaches that God is drawn to His people by His love for them and by the Fragrance of Worship. (c)2017 Robert I.M.

Download or read book He Speaks in the Silence written by Diane Comer and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-01-05 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He Speaks in the Silence is about Diane Comer’s search for the kind of intimacy with God every woman longs for. It is a story of trying to be a good girl, of following the rules, of longing for a satisfaction that eludes us. Disappointed with all Diane had been told was supposed to fulfill her, she begged God in desperation to give her more. And He did. But first He took her through a trial so debilitating it almost destroyed what little faith she had. He let her go deaf. Using vivid parallels between her deafness and every woman’s struggle to hear God, this book shows women not only how Diane, as a deaf woman, hears in everyday life, but also how she can learn to listen to God in the midst of her own loud life, finding intimacy with God and the deep soul satisfaction she longs for.
Download or read book God s Living Fragrance written by Bonnie Brooks and published by Author House. This book was released on 2004-11-17 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God’s Living Fragrance uses our sense of smell to talk about the spiritual realm. Fragrance is a substance of things unseen. How can an invisible God be made real to a visible world? What can we do to make the spiritual world able to be perceived by others? Even when others can’t seem to hear or see spiritual things, they may still be able to smell a heavenly scent. Our success will depend on what scent we give off. Every day we give off either the smell of self or the fragrance of Him. As we learn how to become one of God’s living fragrances we will give off an essence of Him that may open the door of a closed mind or drift through the windows of the hardest heart. As we do, we will find that His presence and power will continue to refresh and renew us as we unplug the stopper and spread the fragrance of Him. Here is a book that is meant to be lived -- not just read.
Download or read book The Scent of God written by Saikat Majumdar and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-01-22 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an elite all-boys’ boarding school run by a Hindu monastic order in late-twentieth century India, things aren’t what they look like on the surface… Anirvan, a young student, is fascinated by the music and silence of spiritual life. He dreams of becoming a monk. But as he seeks his dream, he finds himself drawn to a fellow student, and they come together to form an intimate and unspeakable relationship. The boys sweat at cricket and football, crack science and mathematics in pursuit of golden careers, and meditate to the aroma of incense and flowers. It’s a world of ruthless discipline shaped by monks in flowing saffron. A sceptical teacher mentors Anirvan and reveals his suspicion of this vigilant atmosphere. Does the beating of the boys reveal urges that cannot be named? What is the meaning of monastic celibacy? What, indeed, holds the brotherhood together? Against himself, Anirvan gets sucked into a whirl of events outside the walls of the monastery, in the midst of prostitutes, scheming politicians and the impoverished Muslims of the villages surrounding the school. When the love of his life returns to him, the boys’ desire for each other push them towards a wild course of action. But will that give them a life together in a world that does not recognize their kind of love?

Download or read book The Aroma of Righteousness written by Deborah A. Green and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2011-03-22 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Aroma of Righteousness, Deborah Green explores images of perfume and incense in late Roman and early Byzantine Jewish literature. Using literary methods to illuminate the rabbinic literature, Green demonstrates the ways in which the rabbis’ reading of biblical texts and their intimate experience with aromatics build and deepen their interpretations. The study uncovers the cultural associations that are evoked by perfume and incense in both the Hebrew Bible and midrashic texts and seeks to understand the cultural, theological, and experiential motivations and impulses that lie behind these interpretations. Green accomplishes this by examining the relationship between the textual traditions of the Hebrew Bible and Midrash, the surviving evidence from the material culture of Palestine in the late Roman and early Byzantine periods, and cultural evidence as described by the rabbis and other Roman authors.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, Spiritual Fragrance (vol. 1) by Z.T. Fomum contains heart-to-heart exchanges of the author with some of his very close co-workers. To say the least, they are solid leadership material at the macro and micro levels. In them, you will find a timely word for children, parents, students, youths, young adults, young couples, would-be missionaries, missionaries on the field, local church pastors and leaders, just to name a few. The Lord is looking for dependable people to promote into leadership. He is looking for a remnant on whom He can count. Can God take you seriously from the heart? When the Lord Jesus broke the lunch pack of the willing boy, it fed possibly over 20,000 people, men, women and children included. The boy must have been amazed that his small lunch pack could feed such a huge number of people. If you are not broken, you are useful only to yourself. When you are broken, you become useful to amazingly very many people, beyond what you might have ever imagined.
