14"You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 15Neither 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. 16In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
We are going back to school in a week and God is challenging us as Fusion to step it up! Matthew 5 is the concept for Passion this Wednesday.
In verse 13 it talks about losing saltiness. If a seasoning has no flavor, it has no value. If christians make no effort to affect the world around them, they are of little value to God. Though he sees us as priceless and died for each of us we render ourselves useless if we are too much like the world, and we are forfeiting what he truly created us for. Christians should not blend in with everyone else. Instead, we should affect others positively, just as seasoning brings out the best flavor in food. He created us to stand out, to be individually unique! We are all priceless yet we live as we are common.
Today i want you to journal and think about your uniqueness in the world. Take 5 minutes and write on your paper, " God, how do you see me as unique?" Write everything that you see and feel.
Then pray about them and see how you can develop each in your life to be a light for those around!
