Day 20 - Because I am a fragrance of Christ, God loves when I draw near.

2 Corinthians 2:14-15:
"14 Now thanks be unto God, which always causeth us to triumph in Christ, and maketh manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place. 15 For we are unto God a sweet savour of Christ, in them that are saved, and in them that perish."

Prayer / Confession

Thank you, Father, for making me a sweet fragrance of Christ. I draw near to You in Christ, and with Christ in me, I am fully pleasing to You. Even if others reject me because of the Gospel, I take comfort that Jesus is not ashamed to call me His brother, and You are pleased to call me Your son. I present myself as a living sacrifice to You on the altar of Christ, holy and acceptable, for this is my reasonable service to You. I am on the altar, one with Him, dead and alive with Him, and You have received me in Christ. I am acceptable, holy, and even pleasing to You. I come to You clothed with Christ and bearing His fragrance. Thank You for enjoying and rejoicing over me because of who I am in Christ. In His name, amen.
