today... something new

not too terribly long ago, if you asked me if i would ever do something like this, i probably would have balked at you and said something along the lines of, "oh, um, um, i'm not sure about that..." well, today i delivered a 30 minute presentation, along with a Q/A session, of my honors research project to a class full of graduate level student speech-language clinicians. no pressure...

want to know the cool thing? i actually enjoyed it, once i got past the initial nervousness. (i can't lie and say i wasn't nervous at all- i mean it was a bunch of grad students and public speaking is not my favorite activity in the world!) i had something unique to share and my audience was genuinely interested.

whatever God is doing inside of me often feels crazy and chaotic but i believe that He is up to something much bigger than me- something larger than life, something heavenly. He has taken me from an extremely shy, blubbering 6th grader sniffling through speech class to today. and just think-He's not done with me yet. it's all Him.
