Devotional ~ 'Be the Salt'

Jesus said, “You are the salt of the earth.” — Matthew 5:13

Salt is sprinkled lightly but greatly enhances its environment. It takes something plain and grows the flavour. It encourages the taste. It works in the background, but its presence makes a real difference. It preserves.

As followers of Christ, we are called to do the same. We are called to preserve what is good, bring hope where there is brokenness, speak truth when it is difficult, and enhance love when the world says not to. When people meet us, we want them to "taste and see that the Lord is good" - Psalm 34:8

Being “salt of the earth” means living a life that reflects Jesus—not just on Sabbath, not just when people are watching, but in the ordinary moments when our character is truly revealed. We are called to let our faith enhance the world around us. We need our love to make a difference and let our lives point people to Christ.

The world doesn’t need more people trying to be seen for self. It needs more people willing to faithfully serve, humbly love, and boldly live for Jesus. To preserve them for His kingdom.

So let us go and be the salt, to step into the places where hope is fading. Stand for truth even when it costs us something. Love when it isn’t easy. Serve when no one applauds. And live in such a way that when people encounter us, they encounter something of Jesus.

Lord, please help us preserve your principles. Remind us to bring the savour of Christ into a world that desperately needs you. And let our life be a living testimony that Jesus is the way. ✝️🧂
🙏 🙏

Today marks 13 years of this ministry group.in Australia 🤍

As we look back, we are so encouraged by how much the sharing of resources and daily devotional interaction has grown. It reminds us that people are still searching, still listening, and still wanting to know God in a deeper way.

We want to thank every person who has followed along, encouraged us, shared a post, passed on a resource or simply taken the time to read. You have helped carry this message further than we ever could alone.

But let's not get comfortable.

Every day brings us one day closer to the return of Jesus. There is still so much love to share, so many people who need hope, and so many who may simply need someone to remind them that God has not forgotten them.

So let's stay the course. Let's keep uplifting Christ in our own lives, and then take His love with us wherever we go.

**“And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.” — Galatians 6:9 (KJV)**

13 years in, we are more encouraged than ever.

There is still work to do.
There is still love to share.
And we are getting closer to going home. 🤍

Sometimes, we are wrong about what we believe the Holy Spirit is asking of us.

That may be uncomfortable to admit, especially when we are deeply convinced that God is leading us. But we are still human. We can misunderstand, misinterpret, or even attach God's name to something He never asked of us.

A person can sincerely believe they are following the Holy Spirit while their actions produce fear, judgement, division, cruelty, or harm. Sincerity does not automatically make something holy. Even our strongest convictions need to be tested against the character of God and the fruit they produce.

Perhaps this is why we need humility as much as we need discernment.

We don't have to assume every strong feeling is God's voice..

We can say, "I might be wrong."

That isn't a failure of faith. Sometimes, it may be one of the most honest expressions of it.

Ultimately, our trust is not in our ability to understand God perfectly. We must learn to discern between God's voice and our own.

Our trust is in God, not self, and we should watch closely the direction of our hearts when we follow Him.

At Come and Reason Australia, We don't want to teach people how to become Christians. We are trying to help people discover the true character of God. That's an important distinction.

Many people, have at one time, rejected a version of Christianity they thought was about rules, shame or earning God's approval. We each faced the same misconceptions in different ways before we got to discover Gods loving Character. We want to offer a bridge to others, so they may cross over into knowing that Truth for themselves.

We invite people with this question.
'What if God's commandments aren't arbitrary rules at all? What if they're a loving instruction (like a doctors prescription to wellness) from the One who designed you?'

When we write about speaking truth, offering freedom, nourishing our bodies, resting, moving, or loving others, we're not saying, "Do this so God will love you."

We're saying, "God already loves you. These are the design principles He gave because He knows what human beings need to flourish."

This perspective shift changes everything. We believe this is a message our world desperately needs. People are tired of being told to optimize themselves. Tired of being told God is vengeful, arbitrary and essentially wants to send them to hell if they don't love him. What they're/ we're all actually longing for is restoration.
That 'missing thing' that nothing in this world can fill. The relationship that gives ultimate peace.

"I genuinely hope someone who would never pick up a Bible pauses long enough to read one of my posts and thinks, 'I've never thought about God like that before.'
I'm not writing this because I've mastered it. I'm writing it because God has been so patiently teaching me. ~ Maani"

God's Healthcare Plan — Part 5: Designed to Love

As I've worked through God's healthcare plan this week, I'm reminded of something beautiful...

God's greatest design is found in love.

Jesus said the greatest commandments are to love God with all our heart, soul and mind, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Everything else grows from there.

The closer I walk with God, the more I want what He wants for me.

The closer I am to my Creator, the more I see His design of love in everything.

From His circle of giving in nature. To the way a healthy relationship functions.

The closer I am to God, the more I see people through His eyes.

I become slower to judge. More willing to listen.
Quicker to forgive. Even towards people who have hurt me.
That doesn't mean pretending wrong never happened. It doesn't mean trusting people who continue to cause harm.
It means refusing to let bitterness become the thing that shapes my heart.
I've learnt that hatred, resentment and unforgiveness don't just damage relationships...They quietly damage the person carrying them.

God asks us to forgive because He knows freedom grows where forgiveness lives. He offers us grace and asks us to give it to others.
Jesus even taught us to pray for those who oppose us and to love our enemies.
The world calls that weakness. God calls it His character.

In my walk with God, I've learned that every part of God's design works together for our Good and for His Glory.

A heart that speaks life.

A mind that is nourished by truth.

A body that is cared for.

A life that makes room for rest.

And relationships shaped by the same love that Christ has shown us.

That sounds like real health to me... because it reflects the heart of the One who designed life in the first place.🤍

God's Healthcare Plan — Part 4: Designed for More.

I've been reminded lately that God never designed us to simply exist.

He designed us to move. To Grow. To bless and be blessed.

From the very beginning, Adam and Eve tended a garden. Jesus walked from town to town. The disciples travelled, served, carried, built and blessed people with their hands.

Exercise has always been part of God's design for our bodies, and for our minds.

Later in life I've realized that looking after my body isn't about chasing an image. It's about being a faithful steward of what God has entrusted to me.

Every walk... Every workout.. Every change I make to care for my vessel...

They're opportunities to thank God for the body He's given me and to care for it with gratitude.

Along this journey, I've also learned that exercise isn't only physical.

God designed us to stay mentally active too.
To think, To question, To reason. To grow in understanding.
To exercise our minds just as we need for our bodies.

Because when we stop exercising our thinking, we can become rigid in more ways than one. We stop growing. We stop seeking. We stop learning.
Eventually, We stop seeing truth clearly.

Physical health gives us the counterpart to healthy minds.

Whether its a a gym workout, or mind workout, we must remember they go hand in hand. They both require discipline. They both atrophy If we don't use them!

It means choosing to engage our bodies to give our brains the best opportunity for health, and engaging our minds— reading, reflecting, praying, learning, and allowing God to renew our thinking so we don't become fixed in old ways of thinking that no longer serve His purpose.

God delights in our willingness to faithfully care for what we've been given.

When I move my body and engage my mind, I find my spirit becomes more alert too. I become more thankful. More resilient. More prepared to serve the people God places in front of me. Perhaps that's the heart of God's design.

Today Lets choose to thank God for every ability we have, great or small because every gift is another opportunity to reflect His goodness.

God's Healthcare Plan — Part 3: Learning to Rest

When you lived a worldly life before you came to Jesus, it can be hard learning that rest isn't a 'reward' for working hard enough.

It's part of God's design.

Somewhere along the way we've convinced ourselves that being constantly busy means we're doing well. We wear exhaustion like a badge of honor and tell ourselves we did good, or we'll slow down "one day."

Yet God, the Creator of heaven and earth, rested.

Not because He was tired or needed to recover.
But because He was showing us how life was designed to be lived. To show us what freedom was in HIM.

Rest is about much more than sleep.

It's making time to be still enough to hear God.

It's putting down the phone.

It's allowing my mind to stop racing.

It's giving our body the sleep it needs instead of running on empty.

It's trusting that the world doesn't depend on us for one day each week.

The Sabbath was never meant to be another rule to keep. It was God's gift to us. A weekly reminder that our value isn't found in how much we accomplish, but in how valuable we are to the one who gives us rest.

I've noticed something in my own life...

When I neglect rest, I worry more. I make poorer decisions. I keep unhealthy habits.
I hear less of God's gentle leading. Its a design law and its obvious to us all.

When I make room to rest in the way God designed, my heart settles. I make time for more goodness. I become more present with the people around me. I sleep better and wake earlier. I notice His goodness more often.

God built rest into creation from the very beginning.

Not only to rest his case and reveal His character of Love... But to offer us what our designs need. To give us blessing.

Today I'm choosing to trust His design. To rest without guilt. To connect with Him inside the gift he gave, and set down everything I am carrying.

God's Healthcare Plan — Part 2: What We Are Feeding Our Vessel

I've been thinking a lot lately about what I feed myself.

Not just the food on my plate, but everything else too.

The conversations I entertain.
The music I listen to.
The shows I watch.
The thoughts I keep replaying.
The things I scroll past every day.

God calls our body a temple of His Holy Spirit. A temple isn't only cared for by what enters the mouth, but also by what enters the eyes, the ears and the heart.

It made me ask myself a difficult question...

"Am I feeding the person God is creating me to become, or the person the world is trying to shape me into?"

Our Creator knows exactly how we were designed to flourish.

He gave us wholesome food to nourish our bodies. Genesis 1:29: "Then God said, 'I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food."

He gave us His Word to renew our minds. “'People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God'” (Matthew 4:4)

He gave us worship to lift our eyes above our circumstances. Psalm 16:8 – Says "I keep my eyes always on the Lord, I shall not be moved"

He gave us truth to replace lies. Psalm 25:5 – "Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation"

He gave us rest when the world tells us to keep striving. Matthew 11:28 "Come to me all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

Following God's healthcare plan isn't about becoming perfect.
It's about choosing, one decision at a time, to nourish the whole person He created us to be.

Today I'm asking God to help me be more intentional about everything I consume.

Because what we repeatedly feed will eventually grow and I want my life to grow in a way that reflects Him. 🤍
🙏 🙏
