Salt -VS- Rice
If you were to cook 3 cups of rice, would you add 3 cups of salt to it?
I certainly hope not!
So, in every preparation of rice, the rice always outnumbers the salt, yet a little salt makes a huge difference/impact in the overall outcome.
In the room in which you currently are, look up at the ceiling... Yes, I said look up!
What is the size of the bulb compared to the size of the room? In the room from which I typed this, my guesstimate is probably a ratio of 1:5000.
Yet, darkness flees the entire space once the small bulb is flipped on.
If I am the salt of the earth, and the light of the world (Matthew 5:13-14, NLT), then "little me" has the ability to make big things happen.
Sometimes, because we feel outnumbered or overwhelmed at the sheer magnitude of evil or wrongdoers, we then choose powerlessness, and decide to go with the flow, not standing up for what we believe is right.
Stop it! Little doesn't mean insignificant.
You are significant. Your presence should make a BIG difference. Stop waiting to be on the side of the wrong majority. They may be the majority, but they are the trivial majority, and you are the impact filledminority.
They are the rice of the world, and you are the salt of the world.
They are the room, and you are the light.
Make your influence felt!
Matthew 5:13 (TLB) says:
"You are the world's seasoning, to make it tolerable.
