Well I'm happy to say that today was short and simple! We started off taking a drive to En Gedi, a park, with natural springs covering it. After we had a selected spring to lay out all our stuff we sat back and wrote a Psalm. The reason we had this assignment was because King David actually wrote many of his Psalms there. So with the two hours we had, we needed to write one of our own...it could be about anything. I chose to do a writing that reflected my life in a way. It needed to only be 6 lines, but I of course went of that because the feelings God put in my heart, just poured out of me. I didn't want it to be a Psalm full of praises and recognition, yet one that explained how my feelings of Him had come to change over the years. My life with Christ has been an up and down roller coaster, so naturally I needed to express those feelings...but in the end God prevailed in my life and I actually let Him take control, and I can't express how happy I am for that!
After we finished our Psalm, it was time to swim in one of the natural springs! We started off at a small one, but then finally took some time to venture out and find something a little more fun...and we did! Between the waterfalls and the landscape of the cliffs, the most beautiful atmosphere was created around us! Many memories were made today with my friends and I, I even had a chance to talk to new people I haven't really gotten to know on this trip, and it was all worth it!
