Look Inside

Mark 9:49-50 “For everyone will be tested with fire. Salt is good for seasoning But if it loses its flavor, how do you make it salty again? You must have the qualities of salt among yourselves and live in peace with each other.”

Ever one of us will be tested. During those times we are to be careful. We need to focus on what we can do, not what is wrong. I know that is not an easy thing to do, yet that is what God calls us to do. We will all fail at one time or another that is why it is so important to say in community. How does what get their salt back? Being mixed with other salt. Because you are a child of Christ, you need to be in community with other believers. Being in community with other believers keeps you from decaying just as salt is used to preserve food. Take some time to look inward and see if you are lacking flavor in your life. If you are not in community, you risk becoming decried from the things of the world.

Gracious, loving Father, thank you for all the people you have put in my life. They bring flavor to the places what are flavorless. Help me to look inward to the places that are beginning to decay. Where I am lacking connection bring people into my life that can help, encourage, and love me. In Jesus’ Name, Amen
