Oh Boy, Its Going To Be A Long Road

Good evening. Ill give a brief introction for those who don't know me, my name is Christina. I'm a baby Christian, barely know any of the bible, and I'm terribly introverted.
Yet about a year ago or more, I was praying to God, asking Him what my purpose was, what did He want me to do? The word "preach" popped into my head.
Immediately I objected.
"Me Lord? I barely know the bible. Im so shy. You can't possibly..."
I have been giving this crazy notion more and more thought. If I am to preach I have a lot of learning to do. A lot. I need to be able to link my word to scripture. I need to understand scripture. I need to be comfortable speaking in front of people.
Right now I feel really unequipped. I scan posts and blogs and have no idea what to say. People have questions, people have challenges, and don't know how to help. A lot of what I do say ends up sounding really corny.
Ah...negative negative. My words can bless or curse and they aren't blessing right now are they?
As scary as it is to be doing this, I am going to start my future preacher adventure by blogging on here for practice and maybe working my way to video messages. Yikes.
Any support will be greatly appreciated.
Please stroke my tender little ego! Lol
