Today, in my readings, I came across some encouragement via scripture…
Salt and Light
13 “You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people’s feet.
14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.🕊️~~~ Matthew 5:14-16 ~~~
I ask myself, “Do I conform to ideals of right human conduct?” “Do I have a responsible relationship toward the laws of the natural world.”
For me, No one knows the mind of other people. There exists some level of uncertainty until words are spoken, which reveals the heart of another man/woman or witnessing acts of kindness and care towards others.
What is sacred to one may be profane to another. I hope I remember this and teach myself daily to respect others’ values on life, regardless if it is in line with my thinking or my ideals of right human conduct or how I follow what I believe to be in sync with what I believe to be, the laws of the natural world.
What I follow daily is the drive and determination to shine my light, which may be seen by others as acts of love and kindness. That’s my prayer for today!🕊️😎❤️
