Do you know what Frankincense is?
No, no it's the man who made a monster- that was Dr. Frankenstein! He is not in the bible, but frankincense is! It's a fragrant substance that comes from some exotic tree, and it's mentioned in the Old Testament several times as one of the things the high priests would burn as a sweet-smelling offering to God. You might also remember that when the Wise Men came to find the Baby Jesus, they bought him three valuable gifts - gold, myrrh, and frankincense.
Do you like sweet smells- like perfume and flowers and fresh-baked cookies? Mmmm. Did you ever tell God thanks for your nose? Well, why not? Without your nose you couldn't smell your favourite dinner cooking in the kitchen or grass that had just been mowed or a fresh orange or a mint leaf. What are some of your favourite aromas?
