So, here we were, sitting in the waiting room at the hospital.
Jill has been my helper for years. I truly consider her to be my partner. Even when it comes to my preaching. Often she will give me stories and suggestions.
I’ve been working through the Sermon on the Mount in my preaching. One part of it talks about us being the salt of the earth.
Back to the waiting room. Jill is reading about food (I really appreciate her love of food preparation — I eat very well!!). She leans over to me and points to a quote.
“Salt is a guest who always brings out the best in others without calling attention to himself — salt makes things happen.” (Flavours Magazine – Fall 2004 – Claudine Gervais, p. 82).
Who needs a long semon when you can say it all in a sentence!
