incense offering

A piece of incense may be as large as the knee, 
but unless burned emits no fragrance.
Malawian proverb

in the silent place
of abiding
I offer myself for the burning
may I be a pleasing sacrifice
to my Lord

Everywhere we go, people breathe in the exquisite fragrance. 
Because of Christ, we give off a sweet scent rising to God, 
which is recognized by those on the way of salvation
an aroma redolent with life.
in the stillness with Sandy
