Jesus taught, “You are the salt of the earth.” It has been said that salt represents the thoughts in us that understand, love, and obey the Truth as Jesus taught and demonstrated it. Have you thought recently of ways that you could put His lessons into action? As we go about our daily lives, there are many ways to season life with a pinch of salt:
A smile when greeting a person whose face tells you that their day is filled with stress.
A word of praise to co-workers for something you know is important to them.
A helping hand to someone who could use it.
A genuine compliment to others on their appearance.
A thoughtful, blessing of health to one who is ill.
As a pinch of salt in food is all that it takes to bring out the flavor of the meal, many times it only takes a pinch of love to make a positive change in a person’s day.
