Let Down

TODAY was supposed to be the day I gave my first impromptu speech. My teacher was nice enough to give us our topic last Friday so we could prepare over the weekend. I did not prepare that much because I had some friends come into town so we went bowling and to a movie. By the way Chronicle is not very good:(. So finally when Sunday came I went to church which was an awesome service and then decided to make a little outline for my speech. Our topic was community service so I figured it would be easy since I do community service all the time and have gone on mission trips. So when I  woke up this mourning I read some in my bible and Jesus Calling to find some peace and to gain some confidence for my speech. When I finally got to my public speaking class the nerves were kicking in gear and I began to sweat a little bit, but I was still feeling alright. My teacher finally made it into our room and we drew out our random audience and mine was 9th grade English class. I was so happy and was pumped to how easy my audience was. As we started to give our speeches the clock was racing. Class ended before everyone got a chance to go. I was one of the few who had not gone yet so I decided to stay longer in order to present. I stayed an extra ten minutes to eventually have to leave because the next class had to come in. Now I am going to be faced with drawing a new audience which is a let down because the English class would have been so simple. Hopefully Wednesday will be fine, but I hope I can keep my same audience or I get another good one. On the bright side reading the word of God is a great way to find peace and joy in any circumstance, so next time your faced with pressure try out the Bible its the best!!!!!!!!!
