Can I do it?

Today I am worried!

I have not been this unsure of what, or if, I can do something in such a long time.

It’s weird.

It’s scary!

I can hear you ask what am I doing that could be so unsettling?

So scary?

Tonight I join the leadership team of Landmark, which is the 14-18 group in church run by Sarah.

I am to do a ‘teachy bit’ on Jesus living in us.

I have not done ‘church’ youth work for quite a while and I must admit that it scares me loads! I am not sure if its the teaching of young people that I am worried about, whether it is being accountable to Sarah, or whether I am having an age crisis in wondering what do I have to offer these young people.

IF something said that to me I would laugh at them, and have done in the past, and said something along the lines of; age is unimportant to young people, they look for people who are interested in them, listen to them, accept them and will just be themselves with them.

I think I still believe that. No … I know that I still believe that but there is a niggling question in the back of my head which keeps saying ‘hee hee hee, what if you are wrong!’

In a few hours time I guess I shall find out – and if I live to tell the tale, and I am not eaten alive by 30 or so teenagers – maybe I will come back tomorrow and blog more!

Must admit – I have not felt like this for a while!
