The Discipleship Dare Day #21 - Manure of the Earth

Did you know that you are like the manure of the earth? It's true. In the ancient world, the agricultural purpose of salt was to make the manure piles better. They were able to flourish as a result of salt. Manure without salt would smell up something fierce. It's the salt that causes it to decompose. Salt is able to make bad things good. Salt is used to turn something ineffective effective. Am I effecting change in the world I live? Are people better because you are with them? As followers of Christ, our assignment is to infiltrate the culture with change and penetrate it with goodness. Are you an agent of change? Are you an example of human goodness? When people think about change agents and genuine goodness, does your face pop up?
