Girl with a bag of salt

🌿 Girl with a bag of salt. 🌿

(For children and youth)

Meera is a little girl in a village in the middle of the desert.

Every house has limited drinking water. Must save every drop.

The only thing she had was an old salt bag that my father had left before he left with the teaching:

> "You shall be the salt of the earth; the earth shall be better off if you are not bland in good."

One day the neighbors were fighting about water because no one would share it.

So Meera exchanged her salt for water and divided the "water" with both neighbors.

Although she had little water, she smiled because she saw her friends talking well again.

The next day, the whole village began to divide water and food again.

Everyone said,

> "Because a little girl put a taste of love in this village."

📖 Reference Bible verse:

"You are the salt of the earth..."

(Matthew 5: 13)

💬 Thinking questions:

If you were "the salt of the land" today,

What kind of "taste of goodness" would you like to put in your world? 🌍

🌾 Poetic Verse: Salt of the Heart 🌾

In a wide world in the middle of a lonely desert.

There was only a thin girl holding a little bag of salt.

She's not rich, inconspicuous, not voiced.

But her heart smells with the taste of true love

The droplets of mercy she divided.

Moisten the dry heart.

Because of the salt of goodness, not to cook.

But to keep life from deteriorating.

When she smiled, the world was tastefully salty.

Because she put love instead of teachings

God saw that little thing as a blessing.

And said -

> "You are the salt of the earth."

💭 Poetic Thoughts:

> The little thing in our hands.

If given with a dear heart

God made it greater than expected.
