The word of God is like a quality bottle of perfume. You have to press down on it to get the fragrance out. The thing about quality perfume is that once you put it on, it lingers. Other people can smell it when you walk by. When you embrace and hug people, your fragrance stains them.
You have to actively press into God’s word, and wear it like perfume to start living it out.When you live out the word, people can sense the love of God within you, and it rubs off on everyone you meet.
As Christians we shouldn’t only be hearers of the word, but must also be doers.
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
James 2:26
I like the analogy. Thanks for the post.
