It is so easy to lose heart these days when so many terrible things are happening in the world. But if we are trusting Jesus he will never fail us. We know that all power is given to him. He died for us and now he reigns for us. He is preparing a place where we can be with him forever. But also he has not turned his back on us. He knows our situation and he understands when we are in low spirits. He tells us to come to him and he will give us rest. We may feel under-valued in this world but we are of such worth to him that he died for us. He spoke of how God even cares about the birds and we are of far more value to God than that. When times get tough we must look up to Jesus for our salvation is drawing near.
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.
