Be Salt and Light

Ephesians 2:10 For war are God's Workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.

Philippians 2:13-16 It is God who works in you to will and to act accroding to his good puspose. Do everything without complaining or arguing , so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a crooked and depraved generation in which you shine like stars in the universe as you hold out the word of life - in order that I may boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor for nothing.

Matthew 5:13 You are the Salt of the earth. But if the salt loses it saltiness how can it be made salty again? 14 You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 16 Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

We are to shine, to be different, to stand out. The only way we can do that is by using and practicing God's wisdom, obey his word and listen to Him and for Him in every aspect of our lives. We are to be different because of the effects God has on our lives but we must allow him to affect us.
