Sometimes "real life" is more important then writing my blog. It is always better to interact with people you can see. There is a real danger in becoming a recluse, sat at a laptop. Interaction with people who matter to you, because you see them on a daily basis and actually talk to them and see their reaction to your words, is an important part of being human. Even those of us who now live alone were once a part of a family. That is a wonderful thing. Something worth fighting to regain if at all possible. I live alone but am blessed with lots of contact with my family. So many families have broken up, many more in the last few decades. If you do get the chance to heal a few wounds it is well worth it. Perhaps you are a Dad who has lost touch with his children. Try to get back in contact when they are over 18. They may well be glad of a chance to know you. Take it easy, don't expect too much too soon, but it is worth a try.
First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.
