Ac 11, 21b-26 ; 13, 1-3 -- Matthew 5:13-16
Homily
When Jesus tells us that we are the salt of the earth and the light of the world, he is not inviting us to be proud, congratulating ourselves on being the ‘chosen ones’. On the contrary, he entrusts us with a mission - and a very demanding one. He invites us to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world, not so much through our teaching of wisdom as through our witness.
