Fear of failure, criticism, looking stupid, all those things can get in the way of giving it our best shot.

This is the story my pastor’s wife told me, when I was a brand new teenage Christian. IOW, a LONG time ago! And it was about writing. She’d already seen something in me she considered a talent, a gift. I started off believing her, but somewhere along the road, I lost that conviction. Trying to get it back. I don’t want the Master unhappy with me when He returns and I’ve wasted His gift…
Thanks for the reminder. 🙂
