Today was a tough day.

I'm going to speak tomorrow at a retirement center. My Grandpa preaches there twice a month and this week he's gone to Puerto Rico, so he asked me to fill in for him.

One of the principles that I try to live up to is to take public speaking opportunities when they're presented to me, because I want to become a dynamic public speaker.

So I said sure, I'll preach....errrr, speak for you.

So I was studying today. And it’s true, what they say, that the Devil will attack you hardest when you’re going to give, going to do something for God. Can’t say I was altogether successful in fending him off at times, either. Sigh. It’s sort of complicated. But we keep pushing ahead.

The title of my talk is Diffusing the Fragrance.
