I Cannot Speak For I Am A Child
By Brianne Mundy
The
February of 2002, I was getting ready to leave for Kenya with my
dad, and 4 other people. I was getting kind of worried. I was talking
to
one of my friends, and I was telling him my concerns.
"What
am I going to say if they ask me about my church?"
"What if they
ask me about my testimony of the church?"
Those
were only a couple of the questions that I had
running
through my head. One night I was sitting in my room, and I was praying
about this. I grabbed my scriptures, and put them on my bed. They
opened
to Jeremiah 1:6-8.
"Then
said I, Ah, Lord God! behold, I cannot
speak; for I am a child. But the Lord said unto me, Say not
I am a child; for thou shalt go to all that I shall send thee,
and
whatsoever I command thee thou shalt speak. Be not afraid of
their
faces; for I am with thee to deliver thee, saith the
Lord."
After
I read that, I knew that everything would be all right, and that I
shouldn't worry about what to say, because the Lord would tell
me
what needed to be said.
THE LORD WILL TELL ME WHAT NEEDS TO BE SAID |
