WHAT DOES THE LORD REQUIRE OF YOU?

He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. - Micah 6:8 NIV

Inspiring meetings.

Meetings aren't ususally the most inspiring part of my job but I have had a few recently that were really encouraging.

I met with a young man yesterday that has a strong desire to make a difference in the world. As we tallked and batted ideas around I was struck by this guy's potential and how even one person can make a big impact.

I met with some of the other members of my office for breakfast. Our conversation was honest and engaging. Being a part of a team that wants to make a difference is inspiring too. When we work together our abilities are multiplied rather than just added. I love people who care about others.

I met with a professor who will be overseeing my thesis project. His informed perspective and encouraging words were very reassuring that I am headed in the right direction. We don't know where we will end up but it is exciting to see things coming together.

In every generation there have been certain individuals that have concerned themselves with making the world better for others. I am so grateful to have so many of them in my life!
