I have come to know that my 'worth' isn't found in the opinions of others - and I'm not responsible for how people receive what I have to say. I'm only responsible to be obedient to God and testify and speak as He leads. The rest is up to Him and the individuals who hear what I say.<br />THAT took a lot of pressure off of me.<br />Praying that you will speak only for 'an Audience of One' and know that HE IS PLEASED!<br /><br />Luke 12:12 **smile**Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4349731646274826596.post-21505559767415486622010-01-20T05:30:24.427-05:002010-01-20T05:30:24.427-05:00I have grown to where I can speak in public but th...I have grown to where I can speak in public but that doesn't mean it still doesn't make me nervous though. :) The first few minutes are the toughest and then you forget.
