The Savor of Thy Good Ointments
 
“Because of the savour of thy good ointments thy name is as ointment poured forth, therefore do the virgins love thee.” (Song of Solomon 1:3)
 
As the bride’s mind was filled with the desire for her lover’s kisses, she was enveloped with memories of the fragrance of the ointments that he used.  It was these beautiful fragrances that caused him to be so loved. The mere mention of his name brought to heart the ecstasy of the pleasantness of his ointments.  
 
Jesus is like the groom.  His love is diffused abroad and the fruits of it are evident everywhere.  The savor of His love is so wonderful that the mention of Christ’s name brings joy and delight to the hearts of those who know Him.  Because of His sweet fragrance, the saints do love Him.  They love Him so much and speak of Him in every place.
 
“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.” (II Corinthians 2:14)  I can make Jesus’ wonderful savor known everywhere.

    About the Author

    Hello!  My name is Connie, and I live in North Carolina.  The Lord has blessed me with wonderful parents, a wonderful sister, and a great church family .  The past two years have been difficult in many ways, but God has been with me all the way.  

    Much praise goes to the Lord for His guidance and wisdom in starting this website.  I would also like to express my thanks to Valerie who has joyfully and willingly given of her time to help design this website and do much of the technical work.  She and her family are faithful servants to the Lord.  They also have gone through many trials in the past few years, but they have allowed God to use these trials to make them sweeter and more like His Son Jesus Christ.
