Salty Christians

Have you heard the little saying, "Be a salty Christian so you can make others thirsty for Jesus" ?

This is a good reminder. Are we adding flavor to our surroundings, to the conversations we participate in, to the workplace, the home, the errands around town? Do we preserve and heal situations we're involved in? Or have we lost our flavor and influence in the circles where we work, play, and live?

Lord, keep me full of flavor and active for you. I know that I have to leave the salt shaker, too, and can't just stay in a little comfort cocoon. Pour me out, scatter me where you will, and even if I can't see the effect in those around me, please let my life have some lasting effect for you. That's all I want, Jesus. I want to be salty.
