Personal Testimony

So, hey.

I really should not be posting now, but I've been meaning to post about what happened this week.

So, like, I shared on Wednesday. So scared, but God made it seem easier by making it someone I already knew.

On the way home that day RM called me and asked if I could share a testimony at the C4C meeting on Friday. The first thing I thought about was like "My thesis is: 'Random' Evangelism and my misconceptions of C4C sharing". I thought for a while about it, but never really wrote it down until Friday at like 2. When I was on the 117 headed back to school (I had forgotten to pack my lunch in a hurry that morning, so I went home after my CHEM tutorial thinking I had 3.5 hours between 12:30 and 3. >.> Anyways...) I was scribbling my testimony onto a few sheets of lined paper because I was supposed to meet with SS at 3 to go over it and he said I should write it down before hand... xP

Anyways, I got there early, he got there late (minimally) and I read him my testimony. He said that it was fine just the way it was. That it was really good for a first-year student. We also discussed some other stuff and he said some stuff about goal setting and what I am going to do at Carleton in my four years. What do I want to do in my four years at Carleton..?

So, ya.

After my meeting with SS, we went to the prayer meeting and, ya, that was cool.

After that was the C4C meeting. I was shaking with fear. I seriously hate public speaking ever since grade 1 when I was chosen as the best story teller and so I had to tell a story in front of the whole school....... I choked on stage. I couldn't say a word. I remember recess soon afterwards. "Hey aren't you that kid that ___" I don't exactly remember what he said, but it was about me being on stage and not telling a story... He definately laughed / mocked me afterwards..? So, ya. After that I pretty much avoided story telling / public speaking at all costs.... In grade 4 I pretty much refused to give a speech. It was worth a large portion of our marks, so I kinda had to in the end...........

So, ya. This was my first real testimony and you can't tell people that you will give a testimony and then not do it... especially if someone went over it with you.

So, ya. After the testimonies of the last couple weeks of sharing we went around to a few floors and gave out free pizza. many people were skeptical about the pizza's freeness, thinking that there was some sort of catch or something..... but some people came out. We just kinda chilled in the tv lounge talking which eventually led to discussions of faith, which was the purpose of the outreach night.

So, ya....

I will post my testimony after I'm done these lab reports that I am supposed to be working on right now / 6 hours ago......... I've been watching movies all day... >.> So good though! Juno and Shrek the Third and How to Train Your Dragon. So good!

More later I suppose.

I just realized, or rather, I just saw that it actually is a fact, that this blog has definately made me a faster typer. That whole thing didn't take like 10 minutes maximum. xP

Ttyl.
