“Father God, we love You so very much. Help us, especially in these days, to show our love for You by loving others in a way that will leave a lingering, beautiful fragrance.

Thank You for the Cross, Jesus. Dying for us, for the world. And thank You for the anticipation of Easter bringing new life, new hope.

We give ourselves afresh to You today, Lord, in this Holy Week. With all the turmoil swirling around us, the confusion, anxiety, fear, stress, uncertainty, help us to be instruments of Your peace. May the fragrance of our extravagant love for You and others in these days permeate all we say and do. Let the beauty of Jesus be seen in us. All this we ask in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen.”
