Readings for the 5th Sunday in Ordinary Time
Jesus continues through the Sermon on the Mount, picking up from last week's discussion of the Beatitudes.  Today, Jesus reminds us that you and me - we are the salt of the earth and the light of the world.  Not the person down the street.  Not the person in front or behind us in the pews.  You.  Me.  In all of our wheat and weeds.  In all of our strengths and weaknesses.  The Kingdom of God resides in our yes.  And what an important yes that is, for others will see it and be given permission to do the same.  Or not.
