The Right Focus
::The Right Focus::
I was so nervous about the speech on the next day; I was rehearsing it when I was on the road, taking a break at work. Although I speak in public quite often, I was extra nervous this round. I worried whether the speech will be interesting, whether it can catch people���s attention or whether I can remember all of my points, etc.
My heart was beating fast right before the speech. So as usual, I recited the Fellowship Theme Verse ���Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.��� Jos 1:9 and pray for a peaceful heart.
Suddenly, I realized what went wrong. Instead of hoping people to know the true picture of the fellowship committee, I was hoping to perform well. I focused on myself instead. I repent to my LORD, and ask HIM to use me as a media for people to understand what ���planning committee��� is all about. After the prayer, I was totally claim and was able to share my speech worry-free. I was also able to remember all the points without stressing out myself.
LORD, I thank you for the lesson.

Hey Princess,
Thanks for all your hard work to put the program together. I really liked and enjoyed it. I heard some good feedback from b&s too. Yes we need to focus on God, but if your intention to do well is trying to offer your best to our Lord, I think that pleased God also ^_^

Yup! Thanks Princess! It was really interesting! Since the topic was a pretty boring one, your way of presenting it made it fun to listen to. ^__^ ... I was really nervous on Friday too. I kept on telling myself that there's no reason why I should feel nervous and that God is with me. But still.. even though my mind felt calm, my fingers still shook from time to time. =P I guess I need to practice more on how to rely on God completely. ^__^
Yeah I enjoy the program too... even org I plan to skip it as I already vote via email and feel ususlly is boring program... then after i hear all the PC heartful sharing and their intention to take care of us in fellowship, am i glad i did come and share the moment with all of you :D
