EMPOWERING LIVES WITH PURPOSE:
What are you adding to this world? God’s word says, “You are the salt of the earth.” (Matthew 5:13)
I’ve spent some time in Ohio lately, and every time I come to visit my mom, we drive past this ice cream stand where Papa always takes my mom for “sprinkles.” He says she adds sprinkles to this world, and when she is good, he pulls in and gets her an ice cream cone covered with sprinkles. It melts my heart every time. Papa doesn’t ever “not” pass it up without saying, you deserve sprinkles today, and he pulls right in.
God tells us we ARE the salt of the earth! Not that we should be, but that we already are!
One thing we know, salt is only useful when it’s poured out or sprinkled onto something. It serves its purpose only when it has direct contact with something else. Salt is a seasoning.
We need to be “seasoning our world” with the love of Christ. We need to preserve the hopes of others and sprinkle our love whereEVER it’s needed.
You are being used more than you can even imagine right where you are. As my mom deserves sprinkles in the love of her husband’s eyes every day, we receive love every day in the arms of our Savior, and may we all be found sprinkling our love to the world in light of God’s eyes, looking at His chidren.❤️
