Food For the Week
January 12, 2012
As we begin this New Year, many set new goals and aspirations for themselves.
I think we should be reminded to what we are suppose to be, and should aspire to do a better job of it in 2012.
Matthew 5: 13-16 KJV (Jesus Talking)
You are the salt (preservative) of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savor, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. (When the believer no longer holds true to the Word of God, they are of no use to God or man)
You are the Light of the world (we are a reflector of the light which comes from Christ) A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid (proper light will not and cannot be hid)
Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick and it gives light unto all who are in the house (that is the purpose of light).
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works (proper Faith, produces proper works, but proper works will never produce proper Faith), and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. (Proper works will glorify our Heavenly Father, improper works glorify man).
In 2012 let us strive to be the Salt and Light that Jesus intends for us to be, making a difference in the lives of those we come in contact with...
In HIS Service!
Until Next Time...
