13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if salt loses its flavor, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled on by people.
14 You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill cannot be hidden.
15 People do not light a lamp and put it under a basket but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.
16 In the same way, let your light shine before people, so that they can see your good deeds and give honor to your Father in heaven.
This passage tells us how God intervenes into our life. If we lose saltiness as a Christian, we are of no use from God’s viewpoint. We would go through humiliation. If you shine the light of Jesus in you, God will lift you up so that your light shines all the more. Our glory comes when we shines the light of the Gospel.
