Are you up for the Challenge?

How many times as you walk with God do you miss the mark? You just realize that the situation you have just entered or experience is stretching beyond the knowledge and wisdom you have learned. That is a time, for me ,that have always put me in depression. I want to specify I don't stay there always God is good. I just want ppl to relate with me because a lot of ppl go thru this. I know some ppl just rise to a new situation like a bull running at a matador, but I know that a lot of ppl tend to curl up in a bowl some literally and some spiritually

I remember I was doing the sound board for our church's annual convention . I had just started learning audio a few months before and was still getting used to how to adapt the eq and other things to balance the sound and of course to avoid the sound man's greatest enemy FEEDBACK!!!! We had had many extra services and for the most part I was getting through each speaker and singer we had. I was sweating bullets most of the time, but kept doing what I could to make it work.. Then Sunday morning came, we got thru the worship service and up comes this wonderful man from our church and acknowledges the work I had done, he understood what I was going thru and really wanted me to know that it was appreciated and of course the whole place gave me a round of applause. Well, that was nice and wonderful to be appreciated, but I like doing things that put me far away from the line of site i.e. back grounds, so I struggled with it. Then the pastor asked a man to come up and bless us with a song .. He starts singing away and then it happened FEEDBACK,,,, oh no why now?? How embarrassing!!!!! I did what I could I did notice what was going on and from all I knew about the sound board I couldn't fix it like I wanted to I got rid of the feedback but lower the volume but that was only a band aide . The problem was out of my control I could explain what actually happened but I don't feel that is the key here . I was embarrassed big time. I basically hid almost under the sound board as soon as the speaker started I started to whine to God I didn't deserve any acknowledgement see how poor I am at running this why did my trainer have to be away at this time period??/ poor me I am so bad .. Then God spoke it ARE YOU UP FOR THE CHALLENGE?
