Fire Report

Yesterday, I take my sister to her friend house. I pass by a residential area. We saw some smoke and orange color in an apartment. I am not sure isn't a fire. We decided to report to nearby fire station. We went to the fire station and make the report. The fireman immediately go to the place and take a look. We went to the place before the fireman and found it is not a fire. There was smoke came from nowhere and the orange color is actually the light of the apartment. I feel guilty to report false fire. Then we went. On the way, we saw the fire trunk rushing to the reported place. Shame on me. I mess out the sequence. I should had investigate the place before report the fire. Feel guilty but salute the responsible fireman. Honor!

(Ezekiel 33:1-6) The word of the LORD came to me: "Son of man, speak to your countrymen and say to them: 'When I bring the sword against a land, and the people of the land choose one of their men and make him their watchman, and he sees the sword coming against the land and blows the trumpet to warn the people, then if anyone hears the trumpet but does not take warning and the sword comes and takes his life, his blood will be on his own head. Since he heard the sound of the trumpet but did not take warning, his blood will be on his own head. If he had taken warning, he would have saved himself. But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes the life of one of them, that man will be taken away because of his sin, but I will hold the watchman accountable for his blood."

Though it is a misunderstanding, but the consequence of you not doing anything if it's a real fire is much more serious...
