I decided not to tell anyone that I was going to be bringing the word that Sunday since I was nervous already. The only people that knew were my parents and the assistant pastor of the church. As it drew nearer to the time my father would call me up, I began to feel very nervous, but I knew I couldn't back out of it now. I had to fulfill my assignment. Then my father began to introduce me as the speaker, and I decided to put my nerves to the side. I picked up my Bible and my notes and began to walk from my usual seat at the keyboard to the pulpit. As I took the microphone from my father and began to greet the congregation, I felt my anxiety begin to dissipate. I saw the excitement on everyone's face and I knew I would be able to complete my job that day. Preaching proved to be a difficult assignment. However, I found that the more I spoke, the more confident I was in my ability to complete the task at hand. That first sermon taught me that my transitions in life will not be easy, I will be leaving comfortable zones and entering uncomfortable zones. However if I keep going forward, I'll be able to level
