Look at the nations and watch -and be utterly amazed. For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told. Habakkuk 1:5
Isaiah 61
To all who mourn in Israel, he will give a crown of beauty for ashes, a joyous blessing instead of mourning, festive praise instead of despair. In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks that the LORD has planted for his own glory.

The Salty Lake
What good is salt if it has lost it's flavor? Can you make it salty again? It will be thrown out a trampled underfoot as worthless. Flavorless salt is good neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown away. Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand.
I've been in Salt Lake city since Friday afternoon. I love it here! The city has so much flavor and potential. I see Him at work all around me already. Through the friends He's already thrown my way and through the community groups I have visited. Crazy! My apartment mates are wonderful and encouraging. As well as the communities I'm planning to be a part of on campus and in the city. Please be thinking of me as I am making new International friends each day. I feel like I am able to relate with them so well since my summer in NYC.
Next thing I will do is post pictures of the city and campus. It is amazing and beautiful! The mountains spring up from nowhere and and nothing like the Appalachian Mountains I am used to. The mountains surround the city like a great wall and ask me to climb them each time I step outside my apartment. His finger prints are all over this place!
Much love,
Liz
