I will say that God is good. I was thrown into something yesterday that I didn't expect but the Lord made it work out. I have social anxiety and despite my line of work, I still do my job and get through it. There are two things I hate: looking stupid and not being prepared. I am the music coordinator of my church and assist with children's sabbath school. As far as I knew, I was setting up the music for the service and heard the theme given to me by other leaders but never expected I would be left to direct the entire service on a whim.
The clerk is responsible for sending out the program and she requires that this information is sent on Thursday and no later because she wants to rest on Sabbath and enjoy the service. I sent my items to her by Wednesday because I don't like doing last minute things. I had a practice with my children Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday but at not point was anything mentioned that I would be leading out the service.
I ended up writing up a program, calling everyone 1-2 hrs before to assign parts and make sure everyone was ok witth their task. I also ended up having to sing for service again which I try to avoid because I don't like my voice or consider myself a singer and I purpose to play piano to cover for my lack of singing abilities.
As uncomfortable as it was, it still worked out beautifully with the children. I have other issues going on from electricity going out and needing wires fixed to my son's messed up attendance record. He was there every day yet they still marked him five days absent.
Alot is going on but Jesus is still on the throne. He helped me through today despite my nerves and I thank and praise Him for that as well as other things at work last week.
