My special ones please continue to pray for Chris & Vicki as they have their family here to visit. Grand kids always a welcome joy.
Have you ever accidentally dropped a greasy substance like gravy, on your favorite clothes and not been able to remove it but there always remains a slight stain? Well there is a solution guess what. Salt, just rub salt on the stain and let it soak out the greasy stain and then brush it off. Salt has many positive qualities, like making an otherwise bland food taste flavorful (popcorn, etc.), removing blood stains by soaking the item stained in salty cool water; also to protect meat from degrading by rubbing it with a salty slurry.
You might be thinking just what does salt have to do with a spiritual truth? Well Jesus spoke of this right after He taught the sermon on the mount — when He then turned to tells just how we are to live. He said in Matt. 5:13 “You are the salt of the earth.“ (bring flavor, purification, cleansing to the world) “But what good is salt if it has
lost its flavor? Can you make it salty again?” (We can’t make that renewal happen in our life but He can)”It will be thrown out and trampled underfoot as worthless.”(the salt will at least stop weeds from growing up in the path)
Tomorrow we will look at another influence that our lives may have just as salt has in a way that we may not observe.
So Go With God my peculiar one and see just what His presence in your life will have on you and others.
