There are many things happening in the world today that frighten us, if we let fear grip us. We do not have to go down that road. If we have found Jesus, then we have the peace of God available to us. It is called the peace of God that passes all understanding. This is because when everything around us shouts for us to be afraid this peace of God can be ours, when it looks as if peace is impossible. God's peace isn't available when all around is calm; it is here for the times when peace seems impossible. We must let this peace rule our hearts so that we are available to help others in their need. We are not meant to run around like headless chickens when things are difficult. We are to be strong and fearless to meet the troubles of our day.
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.
