You are the salt of the earth and the light of the world—your life is meant to shine.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Matthew 5:13–14 (NIV):
“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? … You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.”

Jesus uses these two powerful images to remind us of our identity and our calling.

We are the salt that brings out God’s flavor in the world and the light that reveals His truth. We can’t have one without the other—our identity fuels our purpose.

When you live as salt and light, you influence the world around you with love, grace, and truth. You don’t have to be perfect—you just have to shine where God has placed you.

📖 Scripture: Matthew 5:13–14 (NIV)
