God is stretching me!

Well, God has a sense of humur and He certainly has more confidence in me than I do! LOL

I almost flunked speech in High School. I would physically get sick when I had to stand up and talk in front of people. In the last 30 years since High School I've been very involved in my church and I'm even on the Board. I've gotten used to speaking in front of our church about all kinds of things. I've even given a simple message when we didn't have a Pastor for awhile. But, the whole church was taking turns doing that so I felt like I had to also. I was always terrified and spoke too quickly! LOL

Then my Mom and her Pastor asked me to come speak and give my healing Testimony. God has healed me of many things and I'm pretty much a walking miracle! So I said ok because their church is very small, less than 20 people, and I know most of them. It went great, in fact I surprised myself! I was sick to my stomache going up there but after I prayed for almost an hour I was fine.

My Mom's Pastor then asked me to give a message while she was away on vacation! Now that was completely different and terrified me! LOL But I had told God I would do whatever He wants or needs me to do so I said, "ok" I did fine and surprised myself again because I didn't really even feel too nervous this time.

Well, I guess my Mom's, Pastor taked to the District Pastor and told her that I did an awesome job. So, she called me and asked me to speak at another church!! Ok now, I'm NOT a Pastor, and have NEVER even had a thought, a desire, or felt a calling to ever be a Pastor!! But I said, ok. OK??? What was I thinking! I know the Pastor of this church, but have never met anyone else in the church. It is a small church, but still, I know no one! SCARY!!!

She called me last night and asked me for THIS SUNDAY!!! So not much preparation time or even time to worry much because this weekend is our towns Blue Grass Festival and I'm making snow cones all day tomorrow to give away. I have no clue what God wants me to speak about yet. Hopefully, He will give me a good hint, like soon! LOL

Well, that's about it for this thought. I'll let you know how it goes.
