I apologize for the lack of real blog title. I was trying to think and came up with nothing....

Well! Today was my first day of work at Market One! It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Sure, I burned myself on the panini maker. And yes, my uniform does kind of smell like the deli... But the time went by quickly and people were nice to me :)

The Justice Team event, H20, is tomorrow!

Kudos to my friend and fellow justice team member, Zach, for putting these videos together! He is awesome!

We're all pretty stoked. I cannot wait to see everything come together! I really hope that God's presence is made known in that room, to both Christians and non-Christians. And I pray that this crisis will stir in people's hearts so that they would be willing to step out in faith to help us build a well in Rwanda! That is our goal, and all things are possible with God!

Also, I was being interviewed today by Jess, one of the lovely Delta candidates, and I was asked what my favorite Bible verse(s) is/are. This is something I have not thought about that in a long time, and scripture is so great that it's hard to just pick one! But I think, presently, Psalm 100 is a favorite of mine-- mostly because it serves as a reminder to me that: 1) I need to praise God with a joyful heart. 2) God made me, and I am His daughter; His creation. 3) I need to be thankful for the countless blessings in my life. 4) No matter what is going on in my life, God is always good. 5) God is faithful.

^"1 Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth.
² Worship the LORD with gladness;
   come before him with joyful songs.
³ Know that the LORD is God.
   It is he who made us, and we are his;
   we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.

 ⁴ Enter his gates with thanksgiving
   and his courts with praise;
   give thanks to him and praise his name.
⁵ For the LORD is good and his love endures forever;
   his faithfulness continues through all generations."

There is a part in this song where Psalm 100 is recited, and it's probably my favorite part. Whenever I listen to it on my way to class, I feel so encouraged. Hopefully, you do too :)

Goodnight all!
