Ask The Dishes

There's a line in Be Our Guest from Beauty and the Beast that makes me think about how I live:

Try the grey stuff, it's delicious

Don't believe me, ask the dishes

What do the dishes, the hard circumstances, the people with me in the trenches say about my life? Am I more than just talk? I tell people about how wonderful Jesus is, but is He really such a reality in my life that, through friendship and random interactions with me, those people can actually "Taste and see that the Lord is good"?

I want to live my life in a way that my words and my actions represent something of the goodness, grace and truth of Jesus. I want to be salty. Not in the new way of being bitter and biting, but salty in the Matthew 5:13 way that enhances flavour, that brings a taste of Jesus to whatever place I find myself in this world.
