SALTLESS SALT
Matthew 5:10-16
Salt keeps things from smelling bad and from being bad. It preserves. It works unseen. You know of its presence or absence by smell and taste. Light preserves, too, and makes the way plain. Neither of them ever talks about what it’s doing. It just does. That’s its nature. We’re to be salt and light to the crowd we touch through the Jesus fife in us. And the crowd’s quick to recognize saltless salt and rayless light.
