Feelings...

So to some this might be rediculous, but to me, its real.
The first Sunday of the month, I started getting nervous because I knew that I would have to teach in two weeks. My stomach was all in knots, and empty because it was fast Sunday. I was shaking and on the verge of tears. I couldn't believe I was feeling this way already. I wanted to talk to the Bishop and tell him that I can't do this. As the days passed I felt a little more comfortable. I studied the lesson many times. I had a plan of what I was going to do and say. I felt pretty good about it, but still very nervous that I had to do it. Two days before the lesson, I was secretly hoping to get sick so I wouldn't have to teach. (Illnesses have been going around my family.) The night before, I was really struggling. I couldn't control my feelings. I had to take it to the Lord and ask Him for help. The day of the lesson, I was calm all morning and things were going pretty well. I didn't end up sick, however. The thought kept coming to me that the Lord has things in store for me and that I have to get out of my comfort zone to see my full potential. The lesson went pretty well. I did more reading than I had planned to. I was going to paraphrase things, but I was too nervous, I didn't want to say things wrong. I thank Heavenly Father for helping me get through this and helping me overcome my scared feelings. I know that I have learned and will continue to learn through this "trial".
