Question: According to a survey, this smell makes us more relaxed and happy. What is it?
Answer: Fresh cut grass!
Some things, like smelling freshly cut grass, can reduce our stress and make us relaxed. There are also things that can increase our stress and make us anxious, like watching the news or thinking about the future.
This is nothing new. When God revealed in a dream what the future entailed, Daniel was more than stressed–he was terrified. Yet God STILL had a plan to destroy evil once and for all and to make all things right. In the middle of our own fears about what the future holds, God gives us hope that He’s not done yet. Today Pastor Jill begins the second half of the book of Daniel in a new sermon series called “A Message of Horror and Hope.”
