Have you noticed how once the hospital gets its hands on you for one thing then very soon you are visiting there for other things? Back in the Autumn I had eye surgery which was all completed in October, but tomorrow I am visiting the orthopaedic department as I have a finger that sticks. Then on Wednesday I have to go there to be fitted with a blood pressure device which I will wear for twenty-four hours and return again on Thursday to have it removed so that they can process the information. Of course it is not the hospitals fault and I am very grateful to have their care. I guess having just had another birthday gives the game away. An old aunt used to say,"Old age don't come alone." I try to trat these vagaries of age as interesting. One think I truly believe is that my Heavenly Father is in control of each situation I face as is working all things for His glory and my eternal welfare.
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.
