If you belong to God you are very precious to Him. It says that He even knows how many hairs you have on your head. Don't forget how precious you are to Him, after all He gave His only begotten son to die for you. In the Bible it says, "Fear not," 366 times, that's enough for every day of the year on a leap year. God knows that we will be fearful, but if we trust Him to know what is best for us we will gradually learn that we do not need to fear as long as we fear Him. Our God is awesome. There is no accident or random event with Him. We have to trust Him to bring about the best for His children. God's providence reigns, it is just that some providences are more comfortable for us and so are hard to bear. When we finally reach heaven we will discover that all our troubles in this life were but a pin prick compared to the glory we share with our Lord. Fear not.
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.
