Salt is Good

Salt.  

Imagine your life without it.  

I can’t, and I don’t want to.  

Your food would be bland because salt adds flavor to anything it touches.  

On top of that, it preserves food and keeps it from spoiling.   

It melts the ice in the winter so that I don’t slip and fall in a heap on the sidewalk.   

There’s one more thing that salt does.  

It can act as an antiseptic.  

It can clean out a wound so that it won’t get infected.

While most of the uses for salt are painless, salt used to kill germs is painful.

God refers to us as salt.  Salt is good.  

We are to add flavor to those around us, bringing out the best in the ones we touch.  

We should preserve insulate and protect the people that Christ died for.

We should also be antiseptic cleaning out the wounds of Satan.  

Yes, that can be painful, but it is necessary.  

The world often leaves us wounded. 

The injuries will not heal properly until everything Satan left in the abrasion is gone. 

No, it’s not always easy or painless.  

No one likes the pain of having a scrape cleaned.

Sometimes we are the salt in someone else’s gash and at other times, 

we need someone to be the salt in our cuts and scrapes.
