Everything Smells Like Flowers

Our wonderfully funny granddaughter






Jesus said, "Let the children come to Me. Don't stop them! For the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to those who are like these children." (Matthew 19:14)

Our daughter overheard our granddaughter muttering, "Why does everything smell like flowers?" When Rebecca finally stopped what she was doing and looked down, she discovered flowers stuffed in her fun-loving, little girl's nose! 

In all honesty, the evil, corruption, folly, and cares of this old world just stink. But if we'll come to Jesus as little children, everything smells like flowers!

So, beloved...

Turn your eyes upon Jesus,

Look full in His wonderful face,

And the things of earth will grow strangely dim,

In the light of His glory and grace! 1
