Matthew 5:13

You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.

Dear Heavenly Father,
The earth is Yours and all its fullness. The world and all who dwell in are Your creation. Father You have founded it upon the seas and established it upon the waters. Your beautiful Son who abides in You and You in Him, is the only one with clean hands and a pure heart. He has not lifted His soul to an idol. Nor sworn deceitfully. Jesus You are the salt of the earth. It is said in ancient times pure salt was mixed with other substances so when it is exposed to the various weather conditions it will leach out salt that was then used to coat pathways. Father as we surrender our wills to You, spending time and seasons with You in prayer and the reading our Your Word, may the love of Christ begin to seep out paving the way for others to live in Your grace. Jesus thank You that as we draw near to You we become particles of salt that reflect Your goodness and mercy. Just as pure salt does not loses it saltiness You Lord Jesus never grow weary, or ware out. Always faithful, always kind, always and forever the Savior of the world. Lord I pray for Your people today to live and do all things without complaining or disputing. May we be blameless and harmless children of our God. Let not fault be found in us in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom You shine as the Light of the the world. Let us hold fast to the word of life so we may rejoice in the day of Christ, not losing our saltiness, and our labors are not in vain. Lord may all taste and see You are good as we reflect Your light back illuminating Your greatness. Father let us not lose our flavor and thirst for You so no man may trample us under foot. All glory and honor our Yours Lord Jesus forever and ever, Amen.
