It's coming up!

Next week. Next Thursday the 24th to be exact.

I will be speaking at a southern Oregon, Pregnancy Resource Center fundraising banquet.

I love to do this, and I haven't done it in a long time. I have dusted off the old speech and definitely updated the material. Now I find myself practicing in my head while driving, in the shower, falling asleep for the night, etc.

I am getting a little nervous! There are some top names speakers at this event. There is definitely the cliche of "tough act to follow". I am the caboose act! Not the highlighted one.

I extend the invitation again, if anyone out there is in Medford, OR next Thursday and would like to attend as my guest, please let me know.

Please pray as I really fine tune the message. Please pray God's words would be spoken, not mine. That is probably where I feel the most pressure, making sure I say what needs to be said and not my own agenda.

I wish I could come! Will it be recorded? If so, I'd love to hear it.

You are a living witness and testimony to the grace of God and His power to heal brokenness.

I pray the Lord is even now opening the hearts and minds of the people who will hear you speak, and that their hearts will be tender and open to the Holy Spirit.

Be strong and courageous!

Wish I had $200. I'd fly up there and see you to your talk. You're sure in my prayers.

I wish I could come, too! Will it be recorded? I'd love to hear it, if possible.

Your life and words have already brought sweet mercy to many others, and I pray the same will happen next week. Bless you!

I am going to see if it's recorded and maybe get some copies. I won't post it on the blog. Again, it's one thing to poor your guts out to folks who are standing in front of you in flesh and blood.

It's another thing to post it on the WORLD wide web. I am a confident person, but that kind of scrutiny is a little daunting.
