Sweet-Smelling Prayer


Psalm 141:2 (GW)

Let my prayer be accepted
as sweet-smelling incense
in your presence.

 

My prayers have an odor. Are they

        • sweet with praise or reeking of bitterness?
        • tinged with delight or singed with grumbling?
        • fresh with hope or stale with gloom?

O God, who created my sense of smell, may my prayers — at least most of them! — be pleasing to Your sense of smell.
