I have hidden Thy word in my heart.

I have hidden Thy word in my heart.

Matthew 5. Verses 1-11 are known as the Beatitudes (because this is what our attitude ought be). I won’t go over them here, but I would encourage you to read this Chapter it is chock-full of practical life application (I am always amazed at how current the Bible is). “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men. You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl..let your light shine before men” (Verses 13-16). We are called to be salt and light. We are meant to bring flavor. We are meant to help people see. However many times we hide, afraid to be the things we are called to be. What’s the result? Discontentment. You want to accomplish your reason for existence? Do what God has called you to do. Yup, it really is that simple. Be salt. Be light.
