“You are the salt of the earth; but if the
salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing
but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. 14 You are the light of the world. A city that is set
on a hill cannot be hidden.”
Matthew 5:13-14
انتم ملح الارض .ولكن ان فسد الملح فبماذا
يملح .لا يصلح بعد لشيء الا لان يطرح خارجا ويداس من الناس .
14 انتم نور العالم .لا يمكن ان تخفى مدينة موضوعة على
جبل .
Please note that Jesus never challenges us (the believers) to
become salt or light. He simply says that we are - and we are either fulfilling
or failing that responsibility. Salt is needed because the world is rotting and
decaying and if our Christianity is also rotting and decaying, it won't be any
good. Light is needed because the world is in darkness, and if our Christianity
imitates the darkness, we have nothing to show the world. To be
effective we must seek to be Christlike in everything we say and do all the
time.
I invite you to repeat the following prayer
for yourself:
Abba Father, I pray that You make me more and more like Your Son so that I can
fulfill the responsibility of being the salt and the light to everyone I
contact in my everyday life. Thank You God for loving me
with a deep and everlasting love. Thank You for Your abundant blessings in my
life, and for the riches of Your grace upon my life. Father God in the holy name of
Jesus I pray. To Jesus be the glory, the power, and the dominion forever
and ever. Amen.
Jesus loves you,
In Him,
Wagdi Henein
