There were three cooks (one foolish, one wise, and one even wiser) who decided to each make 3-egg omelets. The foolish cook and the wise cook began breaking eggs directly into the mixing bowl. Each of them broke two eggs into the bowl and all was well. However, the 3rd egg to go into the bowl in each case was rotten. The foolish cook decided that since 2 out of 3 eggs were good that the omelet would be good as well. The wise cook knew that because of just a part of the mixture was bad, that the entire omelet would be tainted. The even wiser cook knew that there would be a possibility of rotten eggs and instead broke the eggs in a separate container to verify before putting them into the mixing bowl. That way, she would know what the omelet would contain beforehand and know that it would be good.

The omelets are teachings. Are you a foolish cook, a wise cook, or an even wiser one?

I wish to be the wiser teacher..check the fruit before serving to your students. Lord help us all to rightly divide the word of truth.

.... but I don't use 'fruit' in my Omelots.... just Eggs Imrasch....

lol....

Sometimes the 'fruit' bears a striking resemblance to the truth.... that's why God says we should 'test the spirits to see whether they be from God'... in order to do that one must 'examine' the fruit and that's best done among the 'wise council' of the Brethren.

I'm gonna find me that rotten chicken!

Truth be told the rotten egg serves a good purpose. Experience can turn a fool into a wiseman. Trial and hardship turn the weak into the strong. Failure serves to teach for success.

If we do not forget to carefully inspect everything that goes into preparing a meal (especially a spiritual one), Then we can be confident that it will be received in as many ways as there are mouths being fed, but that some of them will be genuinely blessed by the meal.

Yeah, I've got that set of mugs and another wardrobe of t-shirts.

Fruit for breakfast? Yeah! Fruit Loops for everybody! No cooking involved.

I can't cook much anymore. It's too painful. I wasn't a great cook anyway, but I do miss some of my dishes I used to do. I used to work all day, come home and cook, do laundry, etc. Not anymore. Life changes as we get closer to the 200th birthday! :laugh:
