Week 11, Wednesday

Personal Fragrance

Wednesday. Acts I: 6-8; 2:

Someone comes in when the door swings wide to Jesus. We call that someone the “Holy Spirit.” He kindles a soft but intense fire inside. You find yourself instinctively doing things for others, and telling them of Jesus. And as you do there’s a something — a gentle, winsome, burning something — that wings its way into people’s hearts like morning sunlight into a room. The word used for it is “power.” But the thing is more than the word ever tells.
