(KJV.) ST. MARK 9:50
(50) Salt is good: but if the salt have lost his saltness, wherewith will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
ILLUMINATE!
Grace be unto you! As believers, lightening the world of darkness, it is a season to shine brightly; in an analogy, we are the salt to season the world as well; Jesus prepares believers to exemplify in him, do what he does; therefore the world expects us to behave ourselves in certain ways, be more loving and caring towards one another, embracing the souls from all walks of life, and living peaceably with everyone.
Salt is so good, that without its savouriness, any meat or food is tasteless; therefore, we all need salt for seasoning food; the question is if the salt is tasteless, can it be purposeful? no, it cannot! but to be thrown away; therefore, as lights of the world, let us replenish our lamps every day with fresh anointing oils, read the word and pray for self and others, that our lights should shine, affect positive changes within our neighborhoods, vicinities into the world of darkness; what we can not do to change the world physically, the Holy Spirit helps us accomplish through prayers.
It is Christlike, that we live selfless lives, consider others before ourselves, for instance, we are all at certain time, may be guilty of this attitude; when waiting in front of an elevator door, we remain attentive that when the door opens up, we will be the first to step into it; eventually, when the door opens up, we see ourselves strive with others to step inside first; whereas, we might calmly step aside for others to step in before us; in the past years, we heard the news, of how people strived into shopping malls on black friday, busted in, fought for deals, at times, this behavior turned very roughed, toughen to handle, end up deadly; should this be so? should we put our lives and lives of others in jeopardies just to save few dollars on merchandise? let us ponder on these things!
Beloved, isn't it respectful when we exemplify Christ among others, where there are strives and animosities? Sure is! the impact of our positive behavioral attitudes illuminates the hearts of the striving souls, calm down their negative attitudes because we refuse to engage in their strivings; therefore, this holiday shopping season, let us be Christlike, in all our ways, as tasteful, savoury, seasoning salt, season, lighten, affect positive changes in the world of darkness: ye are lights of the world; illuminate! Peace and Love be unto you! Amen and Amen!
WORD OF WISDOM:
(KJV.) Proverbs 4:18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.
