Evening: Psalm 73; Matthew 5:11-16
Christian communities can be insipid or dull. It happens if they forget who or what they are for. When Christians think of themselves individualistically and not as community, churches lose their flavour and spark. Jesus addressed the crowds on the Mount: “You are the salt of the earth … You are the light of the world.” We are not solitary grains, but many; one grain of salt depends for its taste on many other grains. One light lights another until, together, they shine! ‘Salt of the earth’ people value others. ‘Bright lights’ cooperate to illuminate the path for others.
