Matthew 4:13 NLT
"You are the salt of the earth. But what good is salt if it has lost its flavor? Can you make it salty again? It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless. "

Salt is used to preserve meat, enhance flavor in food and melt ice on walkways and roads. We use it to soften water and tenderise meat. In ancient days is was also used to pay wages coining the phrase "worth his salt". It's an important nutrient in our diet and helps our electrolytes stay in balance. Without salt, our body cannot function correctly and we cannot think straight.
As salt, we are preserved by God, set apart by Him and given a purpose for His kingdom. If we are not fulfilling our purpose we are of no use. As salt, we should be spreading the Gospel. God created us to love Him, live for Him and tell the world about Him.
To me, life without Jesus would be very tasteless.
Blessings, Cecilia
