"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path." Psalm 119: 105

Beofre each work day every eMi office around the world starts of the morning in prayer and devotion. Today was our first full day in the office but before we began training, we read Psalm 119. The Psalmist is so passionate about God's word.. with a desire to know and live it out. There will be days that are more challenging than others or days I feel alone but I pray that I cling to His word no matter what and put my hope in His truth.

In training, we discussed cultural differences between the US and the UK (although there are a lot of similarities). A fun tid-bit of information:

Loo is not a person
A biscuit is a cookie and scone is a biscuit :)

We also talked about cultural differences in India (we leave in about a month for our project trip). So the staff spent some time prepping us and sharing previous project portfolios of work done in India to give us an idea of the kind of work we will be doing. Our project consists of a conceptual building design for an orphanage.. more details to come!
