Thoughts on Matthew 5:13-15
Salt and light. That’s who you are. You may not always feel very salty or very bright. But Jesus names you and invites you to flavor and dazzle the world. You are salt, may you bring out the best in the people you encounter today and the earth God has given you to tend. You are light, shine so that others can see their beauty and their brokenness. All for God’s glory, point to Jesus! Amen.

Great reminder. Sometimes all the darkness gets overwhelming.

But it cannot extinguish the light, Praise our Lord!
Flavor and dazzle…
I like your choice of verbs to go with salt and light. Thank you for sharing your reflections.
thank you, Ken. It’s a reminder for my own soul. You certainly add flavor to the world!
Yea…thanks for the reminder, Debby! Heading over to City of St Francis to continue praying for the lights of Christ to be more visible, and connected in this very special city. We miss the salt and light of Debby and Jack:)!
