13 You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet. ~ Matthew 5:13-16
Some people say that salt was so important in ancient times that it actually enabled society to expand; thus, salt came to actually represent great power and value. What does that mean for us?
We are to be that kind of salt:
- Influential
- Powerful
- Valuable
We’re influential because of our message of the Gospel. The only Gospel that changes lives, restores relationships, gives hope to a hopeless world, and saves souls.
We are powerful because we are connected to the ultimate power, Jesus. He said all authority in heaven and on earth is given to Him, and He gives us access to that power and authority through His Holy Spirit and His Holy name.
We are valuable because Jesus, God the Son, Himself, came and died to pay the price for us. God Himself dwells within us. And God molds us into His image as He redeems us from our past. We are valuable.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Embody Salt.
