Being the Salt of the Earth

There is something about salt you need to understand. Your food has no meaning or attraction in taste until salt comes in. Salt, figuratively speaking, has the power to bring colour into what appears to be black and white.

Everyone outside Christ has no direction or what they are meant to do. When Jesus said we are the salt of the earth, it implies that we are giving people a sense of direction in their lives.

Wherever you are, you are giving people a purpose-filled life, drawing them to Christ Jesus, their first love. Doing this allows them to know why they exist.

Being the salt of the earth allows people to draw closer to Christ.

But when the salt has lost its savour, it implies that you have lost focus. When you who are to draw people closer to Christ by giving their life the true meaning are distracted, you live without value, having no meaning like those you are to save. What then is the essence of your existence? You would be thrown out because there is nothing to gain from you.

But when you live and act as the salt of the earth, you give the people around you and wherever you go a reason to live, and by living, they live the Christ Jesus’ life.

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t? Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations—you’re born again, and you are now brand new!
