Ministryphobia
Fear grasps my heart and stabs at my courage violently
My knees shake and do the jitterbug with each other
Breath struggles raggedly to escape from the fleshy prison
The pounding of my heart can be heard in a resounding thud
As my heart beats against my breast almost jumping out
Shivers chatter down my spine, scraping the vertebrae
Beady eyes staring intently as I step forward quite timidly
If I speak they will judge me before they even know me
This is what God wants; a little voice says tugging at my soul
A beautiful white dove of peace floats down from heaven
And rests on my very soul calming all my timid nerves
The hand of God protects and leads me forward with the need
To share His word, these children need to hear His word
They need to know their heavenly Father loves them
