The Aroma of Mercy

by Toni Bands

'The Aroma of Mercy' is a compilation of stories about some of the people mentioned in the list of miracles performed by Jesus, as well as a few of the millions of twentieth century miracles that I've heard of. I've let my imagination take flight. All stories are fictional, based on miracles. These short stories are interspersed with Bible studies about God's love for us. Meditate on His love until it takes root in your spirit. Spending time with the King results in a pleasing aroma emanating from us. "For we are to God the fragrance of Christ." Everyone who comes into contact with you will smell the aroma of Love. See the Father as He turns His face towards you and His face lights up when He sees you. Bow down and worship, offering back to Him the fragrance He gives! If this book makes you realize how much you are loved, it will have reached its goal.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

At the age of fifty my life changed drastically and suddenly I found time for all those things I'd always wanted to do. One of those things is writing. This is the first time I've thought of publishing a book - simply because the stories contained in this manuscript are such a blessing to me. I'm living in forgiveness. The joy of the Lord is my strength. I'm sheltered safe and warm under His wings and exalt in His love. This perfectly describes me as I wait for the soon return of our Lord Jesus Christ.
