Jesus gave his disciples (myself included) the job title of "salt of the earth". (Matt 5:13)
And Paul told the Colossian church to be sure their conversations were "seasoned with salt". (Col 4:6)
And so I've known salt to be a good thing, on fries and in life, but never really understood what exactly this spirtual salt stood for. So I did some research and looked into the uses of salt (call me a dork, it's cool)...what I found truly moved me, encouraged me, and convicted me to USE and BE salt.
4 Main Uses of Salt
- Enhances
- Salt enhances the flavor of what already is; it brings out the best in something.
- Cleanses
- Salt lifts stains and dirt, removing residue and leaving it much cleaner than it was found.
- Preserves
- Salt preserves things in a state it is able to remain.
- Heals
- Salt heals wounds and calms irritation.
Let your words, actions, and entire being enhance, cleanse, preserve, and heal those around you.
True salt.
