Once again I was amazed by the message by Pastor. We had just finished the 8 beatitudes and now we were starting on the new portion of the Sermon of the Mount which was Salt and Light.

And just like what Pastor had mentioned, what is true in the natural is also true in the supernatural.

Just like how salt preserves food and preventing it to decay, we being the salt preserve the world from decaying and dying.

Just like how salt purifies and cleanses impurities, we help to purify the society but bringing in the right value from the Kingdom of God.

Just like how salt heals, we bring in the healing power of Jesus and heal the world from it's emotional hurts, physical diseases and iniquities.

Just like how salt flavors, we bring in joy and colors to the fallen world that have lose it direction and once again ushering the presence of God to the world.

Just like how salt melts ice, we melt the icy feeling of the world and bring in passion.

Just like how salt gives energy, we give energy to the world and make the world be excited for God.

Just like how salt creates thirst, we creates a thirst for the living water of the Holy Spirit and make the world hungry for God to fill them.

And that is what distinct us from the world outside.

And for the light...

The light illuminates, which is to reveal.

The light promotes life, which is to bring life to the world.

The light awakens us from sleep, which is to awaken us from our darkness.

The light provides vision, which allow us to see things from faraway places.

The light is persistent, which mean to keep on wanting to dominate every single dark corner that it can get into.

The light attracts, which is to attract things to it.

The light solves problems, which is to be a problem solver and not a trouble maker.

Lord, I really wanna to be the salt and light of the world. I might not be perfect but I know You are and You will guide me. So today, teach me Your ways. That even in the world, I am focus and I won't lose my vision that You had given to me.

In Jesus' name I pray, Amen!
