Luke 14:34-35

       “Salt is good; but if the salt has lost its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is neither fit for the land nor for the dunghill, but men throw it out.” It’s kind of a weird verse for a devotion, but in context, it makes perfect sense. It’s about how our Christian talk and walk line up with each other and how they appear to others. One who says they are a Christian and talks the talk but doesn’t walk the walk is like flavorless salt. We don’t understand how that works because our salt is pure, but when Jesus used this phrase, salt wasn’t pure and could lose its flavor. We today would call that person a hypocrite and stop listening to anything they say. It’s sad to say, but in the words of Jesus, that person would neither be fit for land nor for a dunghill. We are to be pure salt, which makes one hunger and thirst for righteousness and melts cold hearts to receive Christ as Lord and Savior bringing Glory to God. You are the Salt of the earth but how much flavor do you have?
