It's All Relative

Speak Up...

I have to speak in church on Sunday. AHHHHHH. I haven't done that since I was seriously like 17. I am not trying to say I am a good speaker or anything, but I was well liked by the adults in my ward back in Redding, CA. I don't know why, I had a lot of attitude, but I was always getting asked to give talks and such by the people in our ward and stake. I did it, and it always went well. Now, I am a little more nervous to speak this Sunday. I don't really have a reputation to back me up. I don't really know anyone in my ward, besides my roommates and a couple other choice people. I have to speak on personal purity. Awkward. This is the sort of topic where you can't use some lighthearted story or funny joke in your talk. It's so cut and dry. It will be challenging, to say the least. I haven't really started it, though I have a couple ideas I have been thinking about. Anyways, I am not really looking forward to it. I don't mind talking in front of people, I just want to make sure what I have to say is relevant, intelligent and articulate. If you have any ideas of your own, let me know, I could use the input!
