“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how can its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything but is thrown out and trampled under foot.
“You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid. People do not light a lamp and put it under the bushel basket; rather, they put it on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.”
– Matthew 5:13-16
Activity
Light a candle, if it is safe to do so in your location, or turn on a lamp. Admire the light and how it shines on the things around it. Look for surfaces that reflect the light, and notice how it is multiplied.
Or put a little salt in your palm and taste a bit of it using the tip of your tongue. Think about how just a teaspoon of salt can flavor a whole dish.
