"You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how can its saltiness be restored?" Matthew 5:13a
Salt gives flavor. Salt acts as a preservative. Salt is needed for life. When Jesus declares "You are the salt of the earth;" he reminds us that Jesus gives flavor to our existence. How would our lives be without faith? Where would we turn if we could not pray? Would we experience a love where another would die so we could live?
As salt people people we are filled with "good stuff". Jesus calls us to share this goodness with the world to give hope. And hope is the greatest flavor we all need.
