Not As Awful as We Used to Be
Someone recently asked me if I ever get nervous when I preach. People have asked me that before and my response is still the same. I have never known enough to be nervous. That is to say, if I would have had any of the knowledge, conviction and commitment that I do now back when I first began preaching, then I think would have been. Preaching is a meaningful task.
Now, that I have been preaching for several years, it almost comes out naturally. So, there are no nerves involved. Especially, on a day like yesterday. Yesterday's sermon was one I think I will remember for a while. I preach to myself just as much as I preach to everyone else on Sunday mornings, but this sermon was one that "cut" to my heart.
Unless you hear the sermon you don't really know what I mean when I ask, "What are you full of?"
