A Sweet Fragrance

http://www.xanga.com/A_Sweet_Fragrance

This blog consists of excerpts from old out-of-print Christian books, personal stories, and book reviews for the encouragement of women young and old to live set-apart lives for Jesus Christ.

Every woman has a desire to be beautiful, yet in this day and age everything that makes a woman truly beautiful is mocked and trampled on. Beauty in this age is little more than a painted face – an empty shell of the true beauty God offers women. My site is about bringing back the true beauty of a passionate, devoted relationship with Christ. Without Him a woman's life has no meaning. My goal is to present you with excerpts and quotes that will strengthen and build up the woman who has set apart her life for Jesus Christ.

    Mamma said no more. What she wanted was to have Harold and Evelyn as unworldly as herself, and to possess a treasure that she herself possessed, and which made beauty and money, and all mere outside advantages, seem of little or no value. The nature...
