Grow Still and Know God
February 25, 2021
I used to be a broadcaster. I read the news on the radio. I never saw my audience, but I knew thousands were listening. I can still remember my first newscast in the mid 1970’s and the feeling in the pit of my stomach. I knew that no matter what, I had to keep reading. If I made a mistake, keep going. If you stop talking, you have “dead air” and in radio, that is a cardinal sin. Keep going until you reach a commercial. When I entered ministry years later, I began to preach. I knew that like radio, once in the pulpit, I had to keep going. Only there were no commercial breaks to let you catch your breath. We all have fears in life. How do we deal with the fear of failure?
