traveling peddlers?

2 Corinthians 2:14-17
But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of Him everywhere. For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.

That is a comforting, joyous, encouraging and humbling passage.

It is comforting, joyous and encouraging to know that God sees our works and is pleased by them. It is comforting, joyous, encouraging and humbling to know that God is doing those works and not us. Again, it is all of those emotions to know the whoever it may be will see the light in us. It should give us more strength, passion and zeal to go out and do God's will.

Isn't the bible amazing?! I love to learn more about it and gain better understanding. Plus being able to talk to friends about it who have the same desire.
