(these
posts are simply taken from my notes written during the missions trip
I went on. Short & simple).
Matthew
5:13-16
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.
“You
are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be
hidden.
Nor
do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand,
and it gives light to all who
are in
the house. Let
your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and
glorify your Father in heaven.
This
really spoke to me in these 2 concepts:
- We have to allow the aroma of Christ to be our smell. When we are out and about serving, we want to smell like Christ and not like ourselves. Represent well.
- We have the opportunity to take care of people in the emotional/spiritual part of their lives, NOT just the physical aspect.
Think
on it!
God
bless, and blog soon
