In my tropical childhood, I climbed the front-yard tree. Higher. For solitude. Rest. To simply be. Sitting on knobby branches amid green leaves, pink blossoms.

Obadiah
Obadiah. In charge of Ahab’s palace. Up close and personal to the evil taking place there.
But Obadiah “greatly feared God.” And saved 100 prophets from the slaughter his king’s wife—Jezebel—instigated.
Hiding them in caves. Providing for their needs. At great personal risk.
Courageous servant of the Lord God.

Washing the feet of his guest.
