You ARE (fill in the blank) is very different than you MUST BE something. Or you HAVE something. Think about these you are statements... If you got the news... You ARE now a Florida Gator... you wouldn't keep submitting your college application, would you? When you grow up hearing your parents say... You ARE our precious child... you wouldn't try to prove your status as a daughter or son -- absent some pretty unusual circumstances.
So when the Lord says -- you ARE the salt of the earth, why do we sometimes hear -- you MUST BE the salt of the earth, or you HAVE the salt of the earth?
Our mission story this month begins with a woman sewing a glittery hem onto an old worn out pair of pants in an effort to extend their already expired life-span...
And it ends more than a decade later with a sentence in a book that metaphorically extends the "life" of that unraveled hem well beyond its shelf life.
Curious?
We sure hope so!
