The FR Canteen is Free Republic's longest running daily thread
specifically designed to provide entertainment and moral support for the military.
The doors have been open since Oct 7 2001,
the day of the start of the war in Afghanistan.
We are indebted to you for your sacrifices for our Freedom.
Read: 2 Corinthians 2:12-17
Some scents are unforgettable. Recently, my husband mentioned he was running low on shaving cream. Ill pick some up, I offered. Can you get this kind? he asked, showing me the can. I love the smellits the kind my dad always used. I smiled, recalling the time I had been momentarily taken back to my childhood when I got a whiff of the same shampoo my mom used to wash my hair. For both Tom and me, the fragrances had brought an emotional response and pleasant memory of people we loved who were no longer around.
Oliver Wendell Holmes said, Memories, imagination, old sentiments, and associations are more readily reached through the sense of smell than through any other channel.
So, what if our lives were a fragrance that attracted people to God? Second Corinthians 2:15 says that we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing. Our fragrance is pleasing to God, but it also attracts others to Him or repels them. We who understand the sacrifice of Jesus have the opportunity to be the fragrance of Christa reminder of Himto others.
The sweet scent of the likeness of Christ can be an irresistible pull toward the Savior.
Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...did you sally forth in the snow? Still have the snow?
We got about 18” over the weekend, and they say a little more should be coming. Today’s prediction is not going well for them. Snow was supposed to start mid-afternoon, but nothing so far.
Good evening, ML...((HUGS))...did you compose today?
Take Lynn-Dah for an extra walk?

Good evening, Mayor, and thank you for today’s sustenance for boday and soul.
Still melting?
Good evening, Connie, and thank you for the tributes to our troops. *HUGS*
A good start to the week? A safe commute?
Any chance those fancy-schmancy computer tele-communicators can find an airplane out them there ways?
Ok, Galz, this is a road trip I could like.....a lot! :)
