Giving a talk

Either Wendsday or Thursday my bishop called me and asked if I would give my testimony on what the temple means to me. I hesitated because I don't do well speaking to an audience of any sort, even if I've known the people for a long time. But I said yes and then for the rest of the week I was totally stressing about it. So Sunday came and I thought, maybe I should skip church. But that would be unfair since I had already promised to do it. I told a friend and then I told my Bishop, in a joking manner, "I hope I don't start talking incoherently and made a bunch of noise. But I got up to the podium and I did ok. I just hope I don't have to do that anytime soon!

Glad it all went well. Those kinds of things are a growing experience I think.

It was a good time to share your testimony, but also to grow in the Lord. I’m glad you were able to go ahead and do it.

I was a bundle of nerves, but I managed to do a good job.
