Good morning.
We trust you had a good weekend. Now for the week ahead.
After listening to Jesus' teaching the Beatitudes which contain character traits of followers of Christ, His audience may well have asked "so what now?"
Jesus continues: “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven." (Matthew 5:13-16)
Jesus effectively says, now go and add flavour to the world and let your life shine brightly in order for the focus to be on your Father in heaven.
So, as we go into the week ahead of us, may the way we conduct our lives bring others to Him.
Blessings.
Mike and Daphne
