Salty And Shining Disciples

Watch
Listen

A lot of times we feel small and irrelevant when the bible mentions "You are the salt and the light of the world". Because we often appear too small as we stand in this world, for it is always attacking us in every ways, causing us to easily doubt God's promise for us and His calling in our lives as a person who can truly reflect the glory of Christ in the things we do. Firstly, we really ought to be assured of who we are first. What we are is more important than what we do. We are salt and light of the world not because we have done anything great but it's solely because of Christ who loves us surpassingly, to the extent of dying on the Cross in order to set us free from the bondage of sin. And now, He is living in and through us who believe in Him - that is the reason why each child of God has the potential to influence the world with his gospel-flavored life. Because Christ is living through our limited flesh, that itself makes us the salt and light of the world. Hence, set our heart right, first. See our worthiness in Christ and have this willingness to be used by God. Retain the saltiness and let your saltiness be tasted. A little salt is all that is required to make the entire dish tasty. A little light is all that's required to drive out darkness.

Often, what makes it tough for us is not so much the actual problems we face, but because we cannot see God in the midst of our problems. Moreover, when we see wrongly – when our eyes are fixed more on other things than God, that is the beginning of our problems. But thank God that though we often cannot see Him, He sees us and comes to look for each of us personally. Because He knows us by name and cares for each of us uniquely, once a person meets God, he will find transcending strength to face various life situations. Blessed is the one who sees the God who sees him today!

Verses to read: <Genesis 16:1-16>

Power in personal attention.

The promise and nearness of God strengthen us.
After receiving undeserved grace, be humble and not let pride trip us.
Obedience is the best worship of God.

4) God sees us in order to lead us to see Him too.

Hagar said, “I have now seen the One who sees me.” <v13>
