What a vivid and thoughtful recounting of your day! It sounds like you were navigating uncertainty with both practical wisdom and a calm spirit moving things just in case, staying vigilant, and trusting your instincts even when the rain stopped. That kind of foresight and care for the work and people around you speaks volumes.

And the way you wove in the parable of the lost sheep feels especially fitting. There’s something profound about the vigilance of a shepherd or someone watching a river level who pays attention to what might be overlooked or swept away, and acts with urgency and compassion. Whether it’s a flood threatening a clinic or one sheep wandering from the fold, the heart of the story is the same: what matters is worth watching over, worth acting for, worth celebrating when it’s safe.

Glad you and the clinic came through this one. May your night be quiet, your river levels stay steady, and your rest be well earned. 🙏🌧️➡️🌤️
