VERSE:
Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his
savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for
nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
-- Matthew 5:13

THOUGHT:
Jesus wanted us to never give up our moral distinctiveness, our
redemptive influence, or our loving impact on those around us. The
purpose of our presence in the world is to be an influence in our
culture against further decay and to season the bitter, dog-eat-dog
world with grace and mercy.
PRAYER:
Dear holy and majestic LORD, please help me resist being
conformed to my culture. Instead, dear Father, please use my
distinctiveness as a Christian to bless others and to expand the
influence and impact of your Kingdom. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
