Salt of the earth

Sometimes we as believers strive to find our calling and where the puzzle piece of our lives fit into this world. I think it happens a lot that we become anxious about our calling and living it out. We see and hear of others who do great things for God and some God uses mightily... (but maybe not you).

Its then easy for the "common" believer to feel left out and overlooked by God and then start to look at our works and what we have accomplished. This leads to feeling inferior, or prideful - a sick and worldly comparison.

But, you are the salt of the earth...

Salt adds taste to food, it also keeps meat from spoiling. We are believers, whether we perform massive things for God or not, are still the salt of the earth. Even if you do not say or do anything special, you are still the light of the world - exactly the same as the mighty prophet and the faith healer - there is exactly no difference.

Salt and light is what we are called to be. And we who are saved are already the salt and the light in this dark world. The problem is that we lose sight of this the harder we try to be something else.

Knowing this, gives us courage and motivation to just "be" who we "are".

"You are not of this world, but you are in this world". If you feel that you do not belong here and that you do not fit in with everything that is going on around you, don't sweat it, this is not your home. While we are journeying through this temporal life, we are sons and daughters of heaven walking amongst the darkness on this earth. We shine and we permeate everything around us by just being who we are - citizens of heaven, passing through.. Salt an light.

The doing part follows naturally and effortlessly and differently for each person after finding out who they truly are. So stop comparing yourself with someone else. Our comparing is usually based on the doing part and we forget that we are all one in Christ. No male nor female, slave or free, black or white, little believer or powerful preacher.

Be free and know that you are a christian. The word actually means, "a little Christ". You ARE a brother and sister of Christ and the spirit of the creator lives within you and me.

Colossians 3: 1 Since, then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God. 2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. 3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

Let it be according to your faith

“Religion” is defined as trying to get something from God, that he has already given. It is living in unbelief. It is almost like you are saying that you need to do a few things right in order to get something from God. Once you have done those things, you feel qualified or disqualified to receive from God. And you probably might get what you then expect.


“Let is be according to your faith"


Religion keeps us endlessly occupied with self efforts. Looking to yourself and measuring your performance against others and God. You might give up after a while, or you might push yourself and become blindly self-righteous.


Faith, is the opposite. Turning your eyes completely away from your own perceived accomplishments or failures and putting them on the fully accomplished work on the cross. There where He has already qualified us all.


Its not about you anymore, it’s about Jesus and his cross. The cross where you died with him.

Revelations of eternal Truth

This life dictates to us. From the car you should drive to the house you should own, not to mention how you should feel about yourself based upon the opinion of others.

Are we losing our lives in search to fulfil our ambitions? Are we climbing the ladder only to find that it was against the wrong building?

Are we on an endless evasive pursuit for happiness?

I asked a friend the other day : So what will make you happy? She could not immediately reply. A few days later she came back to me with a simple answer. Only to feel that I belong.

Perhaps happiness and fulfilment is found in the small things. The simple and uncomplicated things. It seems that we have complicated life and fulfilment to such a degree that it becomes a rat-race to attain.

Perhaps its even more simple than that.

What if we could experience happiness and total satisfaction right now. What if we did not have to wait and labour many years before we could reach that which fulfilled us?

What if I told you something that would shake you awake from your sleep?

What if true fulfilment, joy and happiness was just an eye-opening away?

What if you could enter into the fullness of Life right now and come to the ecstatic revelation that you were blind all these years and that true and total fulfilment and joy is yours right now?

Its simple, but difficult to grasp because of the callouses and dictations this world gives us.

The simple truth is this :  In the death and subsequent life of the Cosmic Creator, you and I were mystically and eternally fused together with Him. It happend. Whether you believe it or not. You and I are already home. Forgiven, full, accepted, blessed, and eternally loved.

We already have more than we think we need.

The key to true fulfilment lies not in relentless ambition, but in revelations of eternal Truth.

Christianity is no Religion

Christianity was never meant to be a religion. A religion by definition is a means of humanity finding ways to bridge the gap to God. But Christianity reveals the exact opposite. It declares that God has incarnated Himself to bridge the gap. He has taken initiative while we could not or were not even interested. Faith now is simply believing God's initiative in declaring us innocent... His Son became the scapegoat. There is now no more effort on our behalf to reach God. He took all the effort upon Himself. This is the message God has planned to reveal to humanity throughout the ages. Those who hear and believe will find themselves face to face with their own creator, never to be separated again. They will find their true selves and live from the platform of innocence and total fulfilment.


And all these things are from God who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and who has given us the ministry of reconciliation. In other words, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting people’s trespasses against them, and he has given us the message of reconciliation. (2 Corinthians 5:18, 19 NET)
