The Fragrance of His Presence

Posted in Cluster Of Camphire

In my prayer and devotions this morning,

I stumbled upon a most moving description of the Lord. 

 I would like to share it with you here:

 

"My beloved is unto me as a cluster of camphire in the vineyards of En-gedi".

~song of solomon 1:14~

 

As I dug a little deeper, I discovered that a

'cluster of camphire' is essentially a

cluster of henna blossoms. (niv). 

A beautiful fragrant flower. 

My devotional calls this

 'exquisite perfume in abundance!'

 

As I sometimes struggle along in the midst

of days, moments and seasons that are

 not so 'fragrant'...I am learning to lean more

and more on the beautiful fragrance of my Lord. . 

He sweetens the air I breath. Through the stumbling darkness,

He is my light.  In the midst of my battle, He is my peace.

 my sweet 'cluster of camphire'

 

Beautiful Lord, may the fragrance of your presence lift us into meadows of sweetness and may we be an exquisite fragrance unto you today.  AMEN

I really enjoyed reading your blog, as well as your profile info. It made me think I should add to my own, LOL, as I sortof just threw some words there rather than thinking through it!

I'm a coffee, tea, scone, flower and quote fan, myself. Looking forward to reading more of your blogs!

Thanks for stopping by my blog so that I could find yours. What a dear Christian sister you are. I too am a relaxed homeschooler and learning so much about "do the next thing" and giving God room to work.
Blessings to you,
Nancy
