We don’t hear this reading about Apollos every year. In fact , I don’t remember ever reading it at all.
Glad to hear you’re not a “know it all” doctor.
You quoted your Mother: “You are the friends you keep”.
What does that say about a group of young men (and probably been drinking a bit) dropping water bombs on unsuspecting people below? Hahaha.
Have a great Memorial day weekend.
Prayers out for our fallen men an women who have fought and died defending our freedoms.

Since “we only see what we want to see”, we need to take off the blinders we might have on to see and hear God in all things (as Andrew shared with us in the first comment). Always be open to the lessons that are there for us everyday if we just open our eyes.

You listened to your patients owner! I absolutely love people and especially professional medically trained that truly care about their fellow human beings.

I heard and try to remember…we can all learn, even from the smallest youngster to the oldest person but we MUST listen.

God bless us all!

Your recounting of a consultation reminds me of the very words of a legendary Italian winemaker, Giuseppe Quintarelli: “…I’ve always felt the strong presence of God at my side. I’ve known Him in the form of vineyard, must, wine, land, sun and rain. I’ve recognized Him amid the casks in my cellar, in the faces of customers or of my fellow vine-dressers…more than ever, I see Him in the eyes of my dear ones around me. Having God near me gives me the strength and courage to go on hoping, to look life in the eye without fear…even of dying.”
