One of the things I like about my job is being able to listen to all of my students random ringback tones and voicemail messages when I'm calling and trying to get ahold of them. It's funny to find out what music people pick. For instance, I had one student named Justin (a guy, obviously) whose ringback tone was "Single Ladies." Cracked me up everytime I had to call him!
All of my students live in Houston, TX and the surrounding areas, and the majority of them end their messages with, "Have a blessed day." I don't know if this is a Texas thing, or a Southern thing, but I like getting blessed so often during the day! Then I have the handful of students who like to leave inspirational messages on their voicemail recordings. This was the one I heard today that really stuck with me: "Faith is not believing God can. Faith is knowing God will."
