As I ponder the salt and light of tomorrow's sermon, I watch the snow/sleet/rain falling outside and realize that if this had been last week's weather, I would never have made it back for Sunday worship.
How much different this week might have been! Or would it...
But here we are - and I ponder just what it means to bring light and salt into all places of life - even those that feel dark and tasteless.
Light brings clear seeing - helps things to grow - allows us to see color - gives power - can bring healing when focused - and keeps us from tripping and falling in the dark. Salt can preserve, was used in worship, and can enhance the flavor of food.
To enhance
To see clearly
To help bring forth growth
To see color (diversity)
To be empowered
To bring healing
To guide to safety
To preserve
To work with God to be salt and light in our blessed world - wherever we are - whatever our circumstances...sounds like a life's vocation to me.
Pondering life while listening to Russian Chant and watching the snow fall,
Kim
