It was my pleasure to take my first trip to California. I heard many rumors about California and particularly the people there.

restaurant in the area. 

She smiled at me and said, “Sí, señor.” 

She caught me off guard so I spun around but did not see any seniors
behind me. I turned back and asked again if she could recommend a 
non-Mexican restaurant. 

“Sí, señor.” 

Again, I turned around and as true as I am telling this, there was
nobody behind me, especially a senior. Then it dawned on me. She was 
speaking Spanish. After all, this is California. 

I understand that “Si” is the Spanish word for the English word “yes.” 

I did not let on, however, but I was slightly offended by her calling me
a senior. All she had to do was just say “yes, sir.” That would have 
made me happy. 

It is important to hear but more than important than that to hear the
right thing. After all, some of the stuff we hear is not worth hearing 
let alone repeating. 

The apostle Paul set this down for us. “So then faith cometh by hearing,
and hearing by the word of God” (Romans 10:17 KJV). 

My faith is not based upon any rumor but upon the Word of God.
