Matthew 5:13-16
13 
“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt
loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot. 14 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your
Father in heaven.


Reflection
As you consider our scripture today, what are some practical examples of how we can be “salt” (a preservative in the midst of decay) and “light” (illumination in darkness) both within the church (building) and apart from it during the course of the week?
