Salt is the seasoning, the spice of life
The reason for giving out
Flavors to heal hurt
Herbs to relieve grief
Suggestions that fill minds
With hope, faith and love

Salt is the zest of giving
The tang that touches
Upon the heart’s feelings
The additive that suggests
We all need God’s healing
With the adoring...

It is people like you
Who make people like me.
To want to live on.

If alone to be there
When people like you
Need people like me
To live on too.

So I went to 
The market place
Called humanity shopping;
Shopping for something
Something special;
Special and valuable.

I asked for salt.
The seller tells me.
“Finished”

Rain fill this grave
soften bones that have been so brave;
your heart will hear my chord so simple
bloom an echo sweet and gentle;
to grow as life between the grass
guiding the sun and moon to pass;
listen for my voice is soft and light
a lingering nocturne in the...

The Salt of the Earth

Who is the Salt of the Earth?
Is it Pakistani musicians making music with pyramids and suffering?
Is it Pakistani musicians finding suffering in heart problems and untimely 
hospital stays?
Is it Jordanian warriors tied to their culture, but yearning for the love of...

Salt gives flavour to what is 
Otherwise bland. The attributes 
Of Jesus laid out by God’s almighty
Hand. Be salt today at home, and on
The job. Beware the devil comes only
To steal, destroy, kill and rob.

Salt of the earth, light in a dark place
Demonstrate the character...

Salt of The Earth



Ordinary people
That’s who we are
Our triumphs
Our sacrifices
Loves
And torments
Go unsung
For the most part 
Un-noticed by anyone

Ordinary people
Who’s lives may have suffered tradgedy
Quite sperate 
From the world of celebrity
Who’s weight loss and weight gain
Who’s lives are sucked up
So avidly

Un-famous
Un-important
That’s what we are
Un-recognised heroines
And heroes
People...

"you are the salt of the Earth"
the flavor
from your
being
your taste
who you are
makes the entire Earth either flavorful or bitter


you are the savor in soup
just enough of you
makes it right
too much of you will
ruin the stew


know that you have a great gift
one drop from your salty...

S-he's the salt of the earth, 
A-lways there to rescue; 
L-onging to help anyone, 
L-et she prove it to
Y-ou.

S-he's the salt of the earth, 
A-lways there to lend a hand; 
N-ot for a time will she ignore
T-he hopeless and poor man.
I-'m awed by the salt...

She lives just down the street from everyone.
Older couples like to talk about her over coffee.
She is the salt of the earth, golden shafts of wheat
waving in wind. She walks her dog, and it sits.
