As
Christians, we are each called to serve God. This scripture urges us to be the conduit
through which God’s blessings abundantly flow. We are not only created to receive God’s
blessings, but to also share them with others. We are called to be the Salt that enhances the
lives of those around us and brings out the “God Flavors” of this earth. We have the opportunity to help preserve the
lives of others by showing our Christianity through acts of love and kindness
so others may experience the grace of God. Likewise, we are also called to be the Light,
bringing out the “God Colors” in this world. We must use our Light to help guide others
down the right path and brighten the lives of those living in darkness. God provides these blessings so we may show
others His light, His goodness, His grace. We are not meant to keep these gifts hidden,
or saved away for a rainy day. We are to
pay them forward, so to speak, by making them known and seen by others. Through our acts of selflessness, love, and
forgiveness, we share God’s love with others that they too may shine with all
of God’s goodness.
Prayer: Lord, bless us when our senses become dull,
when our Salt has lost its flavor and our Light is not brightly shining. Help us to focus on your presence in our
lives, that we may show others the abundance of blessings you so graciously
give us. Amen.
