Each believer possesses and emanates unique fragrance. One such kind of fragrance is the compassionate fragrance of the heart emanated towards those who have failed in this world, those who are ill, those who are in lowly positions and neglected by the society, and those who have not yet met with God.
For the most part, people embrace and keep close distance of those who are successful but turn their backs on others who have failed. People of faith, however, must always treat others with a warm heart with which they can pray for the dismayed and the ill.
The compassionate fragrance of the heart enables one to wipe the tears of those who are weary in the world and testify to Gods love with aroma that is much stronger than a hundred words.
