Salty

The other day during our staff devotion time, we talked about how we are the salt of the earth. It sparked a long discussion about salt. Why salt? What does it mean? Salt adds flavor. You salt meat before you cook it, water for pasta, and you even use salt when you bake. A looooong long time ago, they used salt as payment. When the salt lost its saltiness it was no longer good. Even animals are drawn to this condiment. When you think about it, we are to flavor this world! This is what Christ Jesus wants of His children! I pray that I never lose my saltiness. Are you salty?

Matthew 5:13-

"You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt has become tasteless, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled under foot by men."
