I'd like to give a shout out right now to cheese.

I just really like it.

I've never tried a cheese that I didn't like.

It's just so delicious and so versatile.

I would eat cheese with almost anything and you can never have too much cheese on something.

So go eat some cheese.

Cheese can even produce images of the Virgin Mary. (Also, to lady in this pic: i NEED that lipstick)

D-Now!

I get to go spend my weekend with highschoolers and middleschoolers and i am SO pumped.

Pray for a weekend filled with the Holy Spirit.
Pray that the will of God is accomplished in every single one of the kids and leaders.

Thanks, friends!

Job

So I finished reading the book of Job yesterday. Wow. That book is intense and so good.
As I was reading it and listening to Job speak, I was agreeing with how he was feeling and thinking and then Elihu comes in and I'm like, "Oh. Right." In Job 34:10 Elihu says, "Therefore, hear me, you men of understanding: far be it from God that he should do wickedness, and from the Almighty that he should do wrong." So right there I'm convicted.

Then God comes in and He asks Job in 38:4-7, "Where were you when I laid the foundation of the earth? Tell me if you have understanding. Who determined its measurements -- surely you know! Or who stretched the line upon it? On what were its bases sunk, or who laid its cornerstone, when the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?"

And the questions like that go on for the next 2 chapters. I feel like Job's response is so appropriate.
"Behold, I am of small account, what shall I answer you? I lay my hand on my mouth." (40:4)

Seriously.
Who am I to ever question God?
