Taste the salt, smell the salt, BE THE SALT!

ok!
i was reading Matthew 5:13 the other day and it really hit me!
my devotional book was talking bout the salt of the Earth thing , which has always kind of confused me, and it actually started making sense to me.

when we add salt to food it changes the taste!
there's a definite change, u notice it!
well hey, that's what we should be like in our world, as Christians!
our friends, our family, our work, church, school, etc, should be affected by our Christianity.
we should be able to see the difference that we make and so should others!

well it got me thinking, 'what difference have i made? can i see a difference? even in the lives of non-Christians?'
so i prayed for God to help me, to use me to make a difference, so that i could actually see it.
well since the other day he's really answered prayer!
this blog is mainly to praise him!
i was slightly dis-heartened by seeing no difference, then in the last few days it's as if i'm starting to see some change in some people, mainly through spiritual conversations and just small hints here and there... like my non-Christian housemate saying 'amen' after i said grace!!! yay!

to wrap it up a bit, lol, read the following verse, meditate on it (think about it) and praise God that he's given us the bible to test our lives, show us his love and help us to stay in-line with his will and plans for our lives and our happiness.

ps. COME TO EASTER CAMP;-D



13"You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.
14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
