I got a call about a week ago from my Stake President. He asked if I would be willing to speak in Stake Conference next week. Willing? Yes. Want to? Well, that is another story. And he didn't want to hear it.
So for a week now I have fretted and worried and wondered about my talk. The assigned topic was open to interpretation. But I have thought about it. I have prayed about it. And today I sat at the computer and tried to "free-write" all that I had thought and prayed about.
In the course of about 45 minutes, I got on paper the gist of what I want to say. I got somethings I don't recall thinking or praying about too. That is usually a good sign for me. I figure if I can't remember thinking of something, yet it ends up in the talk (or lesson, or whatever) I give the credit to the Spirit and go with that.
Now I have a few more days to ponder and practice and tweak it so it will be just right. But the initial draft is always my worst fear. Well, that and actually speaking at stake conference. But too late for that now, isn't it?
