\"Unknown-2\"It\u2019s been six weeks since Heidi died. I have spent innumerable hours thinking about her in heaven. I like Revelation 7:9-17<\/a> best for a descriptive image of what she does with all her time. Without any cancer, suffering, work, eating, sleeping, etc. \u2013 just imagine all the time we\u2019ll have for praising God in heaven!<\/p>\n

But lately, for some odd reason, I\u2019ve been thinking a lot about what things Heidi smells in heaven. I wonder if she now smells the way God smells – and I don\u2019t mean in the sense as to what scent they give off, but how does God\u2019s almighty and perfect olfactory sense work? What smells does He smell when he takes a whiff?<\/p>\n

What is a pleasing aroma to God? What scents does He fill the heavens with? And therefore, what do the inhabitants of heaven smell when they take a whiff?<\/p>\n

I have a friend* who has, for as long as I\u2019ve known her, worn the same perfume. She must really like the scent. I think it smells like a hideous combination of mosquito repellent and my grandma\u2019s bathroom spray. \u00a0Which I find curious.<\/p>\n

I have another friend* who has severe haliotosis. I take a (hopefully) subtle small step back whenever we\u2019re in conversation. Not-too-ironically, her husband is somewhat of a close-talker. Not only that, he\u2019s also touchy-feely. He\u2019s always hanging all over her \u2013 right up close \u2013 smelling that bad breath. Does he not notice? I wonder.<\/p>\n

I know some other people* whose home smells like a decomposing animal. (We used to have packs of wild dogs roam our neighborhood in Morocco and they would sometimes fight to the death. I know all too well what a rotting dead animal smells like.) These are decent people who have regular jobs and clean their house and do laundry and such. I don\u2019t think they\u2019re hiding anything (taxidermy? Animal sacrifice???). But do they not notice the abhorrent smell of their home? I wonder.<\/p>\n

All these things have made me wonder about our own human olfactory sense. Because, clearly, God has made us all to smell things differently. What seems abhorrent to one, seems decent, even lovely and pleasant to another. It\u2019s incredible!<\/p>\n

And so I wonder about God. Since He is GOD and the very CREATOR of the distinctly unique olfactory sense within each one of us, certainly His olfactory sense must be distinctly different from OURS!<\/p>\n

And, interestingly, the Bible frequently talks about aromas. It is no secret that some are truly pleasing to God and others are not. Genesis 8:21<\/a>, Leviticus 2:2<\/a>, Leviticus 6:15<\/a>, Ephesians 5:2<\/a>, Ezekial 20:41<\/a>, Isaiah 5:24,<\/a> Ezekial 8:17<\/a>.<\/p>\n

So how do we know when we\u2019re smelling that which perhaps God finds pleasing? Could it be we\u2019re missing the divine in certain smells because we\u2019re tripped up by our own noses?<\/p>\n

I recently met a woman new to my neighborhood and she asked where I shop for groceries. I told her whenever I have enough time, I prefer Aldi\u2019s because of the incredible savings. She pulled up her nose and said she refuses to shop there. \u201cIt stinks,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

I know what she means. Aldi\u2019s has a distinct smell. It smells like busy, haggard single moms trying to make ends meet. It smells like daycare. It smells like tired and worn out dads working two physically laborious jobs. It smells like people forced to view deodorant, shampoo and soap as luxuries. It smells like families who have chosen to eat over getting the washing machine fixed. It smells like humanity – real live people working hard to make it in this life and that includes shopping at Aldi\u2019s. I wondered: What if the Aldi\u2019s scent is a pleasing aroma to God because of all it represents?<\/p>\n

Does God maybe even prefer the smell of Aldi\u2019s to that of the fancy grocery store on the other side of town that pumps a new-baked cookie smell down every aisle to encourage over-spending and over-consumption?<\/p>\n

Does God smell those differences and do they represent the differences in humanity to Him?<\/p>\n

A few years ago, a dear friend and I traveled to Guatemala together. In awe of returning to the country we both love so much, we walked through the airport terminal in silence. When we reached the lobby, we simultaneously set our bags down. In a totally unplanned moment, we both breathed in deep and let the smells of Guatemala fill our nostrils. I said, \u201cI love this smell.\u201d She said, \u201cMe, too.\u201d<\/p>\n

Guatemala smells like one part exhaust, two parts green chilis, three parts burning rubbish, and four parts body odor. I would imagine many human nostrils would not find it pleasant. But to me, it represents the birthplace of my daughter, the multiple service-learning trips we have taken there and also, some of the most poor, hard-working, and forgotten people on the planet. I love their smell, because it reminds me of them<\/em>.<\/p>\n

I wondered – does God love their smell, too? Could it be God loves the smell of Guatemala, Burundi, Haiti, and the Congo (just to name a few) because He is always close to the poor, the broken, the downhearted?<\/p>\n

I wonder if God is drawn to the funky smells of this earthly home \u2013 simply because that\u2019s where the majority of His hurting people are. Slums of Mumbai. Garbage city of Cairo. La Limonada of Guatemala. Under the highway overpass. Mission for the homeless (in your city and in mine). And millions of other places most of us are unaware exist.<\/p>\n

Our family has lost four beloved family members in just a little more than a year. I have been at the bedside for each one in their last few days here on earth. Repeatedly, in those final days, those of us gathered at the bedside would comment that it felt like our loved one had one foot on earth and one foot in heaven. That space \u2013 that liminal space between heaven and earth, life and death, old body and new, is probably the most holy space I\u2019ve ever had the privilege to enter. And there is a distinct smell in that holy of holies. I wonder if that is because they start to smell like heaven.<\/p>\n

I do not believe heaven will smell like lilacs, Estee Lauder Cinnabar, or lavender fields. Some people might like those things (me), but certainly, there are those who do not!<\/p>\n

I think heaven has a smell all it\u2019s own and just like most things in heaven \u2013 it will surprise us.<\/p>\n

* In order to protect the innocent, I have changed some vital information so that there is virtually no way anyone could figure out who I am talking about here. \u00a0I may or may not have changed the gender of the referred upon. \u00a0I may or may not have been referring to more of an acquaintance than a long-time friend. \u00a0I may or may not have been referring to someone from my past (or present). \u00a0I may or may not have been referring to someone deceased (or alive). \u00a0Even Paul, who should know these stories well, could not guess who I was referring to. \u00a0So rest easy, all my friends – it’s not you…<\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
