Tonight’s talk on community went really well. So well in fact, that they want me to come back and talk again. For not feeling terribly prepared, God really impressed me on this one. I spoke from my heart, engaged the kids, and found a commonality. (How bad North Salem High School’s football team was and still is.) I was nervous but also confident, an odd combination. It’s funny, I’m getting used to talking in front of groups, used to the rhythm of it. My preaching professor taught me if you can keep the kids in the group interested, you got them all. I had junior highers to adults at this and they were all with me, it felt good to know I can really do what I’ve wanted. It’s like breaking through the water to the air at last. This last week, God has been reminded me often of a song and a truth I need to remember. I found it on youtube so I could post it on here for you. Listen to the words. They are important ones to remember, as God keeps telling me.
