The arborists are coming! I’m consulting with two different experts just to be sure I’m getting the best advice. I find myself delighted by the particular passions and expertise of a certain certified arborist whose bio says “his passion, strong background in insect and disease management, thirst for knowledge, and love of plants make him a great resource of information” for all of my tree issues. He’s not just a certified arborist; he’s also a certified tree care safety professional.
I’m seeking the wise.
When we have problems of any kind, especially in the mental or spiritual health categories, remember to seek the wise. Find the older, wiser, people who know how to help solve your problems. Over the years, I’ve learned to seek the wise. I collect them in my life and know to go to them. And I’m realizing that in some categories of living, God wants me to be the wise person helping the younger if they are having the same kinds of problems in life I endured.
Think of yourself standing up in church, for example, and crying out, “Who here is wise? Where are the wise? Come help! Come help!” Maybe you’re the wise one sent there to help someone.
