"You are the salt of the earth...You are the light of the world."  What an awesome responsibility, given to us by Jesus! As disciple/witnesses, we are called by God to make a difference in the world because of what he has done for us. As salt makes something bland very tasty, the way we live and the words we speak should do the same in our environment. We bring the truth of the Gospel, the message of salvation, the love of God to a world that is empty without God. As light expels darkness, gives warmth and provides direction and guidance, so are to see our lives as followers of Jesus doing. It is his light that shines in and through us. We are not to hide the light, but let it shine clearly and brightly so that others may give glory to God. Lord, we renew our commitment to you, to be that salt and that light.
