Sunday we spoke about Jesus stating that we are the salt of the earth and the light of the world ( Matthew 5: 13-16).
What a profound statement: You are...!!!
It’s profound because:
- We don’t always feel like the salt so shinning our light is not an option
- God takes and uses our weaknesses to change the world
- Jesus asks us to bring our impurities/dilutions (sin, fear, doubt, pain etc...), so they will not affect our flavouring the world
Listen again to Jesus words: Matthew 5: 13-16
You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
