I’ve learnt that some people will encourage you to do something that you fear the most, not because they want to humiliate you, but because they want to make you aware of your potential.

We had a youth conference at my church when my pastor’s wife told me that I was going to preach. I didn’t like that because I knew that I had insecurities and I felt like I was going to embarrass myself.

The way I was so scared I even wanted to cry, but I made it, I don’t how, but I made it.

Afterwards all I heard was the round of applause from the congregation. They even told me that they were touched by my words.
