A Far better country..

"Each one of these people of faith died not yet having in hand what was promised, but still believing. How did they do it? They saw it way off in the distance, waved their greeting, and accepted the fact that they were transients in this world. People who live this way make it plain that they are looking for their true home. If they were homesick for the old country, they could have gone back any time they wanted. But they were after a far better country than that—heaven country. You can see why God is so proud of them, and has a City waiting for them."
Hebrews 11:13-16 ( (MSG)

".. unchangeable ... completes.."

"But he is unchangeable, and who can turn him back?
    What he desires, that he does.
For he will complete what he appoints for me,
    and many such things are in his mind."
Job 23:13-14 (ESV)

"...sweet fragrance.."


"But thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us spreads and makes evident everywhere 
the sweet fragrance
 of the knowledge of Him. For we are the sweet fragrance of Christ [which ascends] to God, [discernible both] among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing; .."
2 Corinthians 2:14-15 (AMP)

" letter ..written.."

"..You yourselves are all the endorsement we need. Your very lives are a letter
 that anyone can read by just looking at you.
 Christ himself wrote it—not with ink, but with God’s living Spirit; not chiseled into stone,
 but carved into human lives—and we publish it. .." 
2 Corinthians 3:3 (The Message)

1 Peter 1:7 (ESV)
"No flowers wear so lovely a blue as those which grow at the foot of the frozen glacier;
