Adding a Little Flavor

By Sarah Beth Lindberg

We are called to be preservers on this earth. We are called to preserve God's Truth, His standard, His ways, and the life that He called us to live. We are not to conform to the world's pattern of living, but we are to stand out from it.

We are called to add flavor to the world around us. Think of it as being your own personal salt shaker. Every time someone encounters you, they should feel seasoned with God's salt in your life. They should feel a little flavored by the grace God has poured out in abundance on your life. If they somehow do not experience this grace when they are with you, then something needs to change. Maybe the holes of your salt shaker are clogged, maybe your salt is sticking together, or maybe you need to get a refill. People should always be able to feel refreshed, encouraged, lifted up, and full of joy when they leave your presence.

Challenge: Read Matthew 5:1-41.

Dear Father God, I pray that You will season me with grace. Help me to add more flavor to the lives of those I come in contact with. May I find myself becoming a better salt shaker for You. I pray that my light would shine brightly for You. I desire to be that city on a hill that Your Son spoke about. Please hide me behind the cross and shine Your light ever so brightly through my life!
