St. Francis of Assisi - July 3

The Fragrant Words of Christ

"Receive with divine love the fragrant words of our Lord Jesus Christ.  And those of you who do not know how to read should have them read to you often, and commit them to memory, and live them unto holiness to the end, for they are spirit and life (cf.Jn 6:63)."  --St. Francis, Letter to All the Faithful, First Version

This is the second devotional I've read today on the fragrance of Christ.  The first one was one I wrote today in 2003.  The scripture I included was 2 Corinthians 2:14-16:

“But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumph, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere.  For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life.”
