Salty,Thirsty, Tasteless

I got home the other day after a long day at work and was thirsty. All I wanted was something to drink!  I walked in the door and went straight for the fridge. I was surprised after thinking back on the day that I hadn't had a drink.  I realized that it was pretty dry day spiritually as well.  I am sure most have found themselves in the same place before.

As I read through Matthew 5 I was reminded of that thirst and thought about the verse that has been read so many times in verse 13.  Am I salty?  Not do I taste salty like but am I salty so that others are thirsting after God.  I want to be super salty that others see Christ love and hope in my life that they thirst for more of God. Sometimes I even forget that I am suppose to be that way with the great christian men and women I work with.  We should be salty everywhere with the hope that those around us desire that crisp drink from the great provider, our Heavenly Father. 

Warning: don't be tasteless. 


Matthew 5:13 (English Standard Version)

Salt and Light
 13"You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet
