My talk is done....

...in English! Now to translate it into Persian. Valerie has offered to help me with my translation, which I am so happy and thankful for! I wrote the talk with my English brain, not good. The sentances were long and complex. I need to learn to write with my Persian brain. Instead of saying:
"Well as the Law stipulated, the Sabbath came after six days of work and was primarily a day of rest. Jesus also performed many of his cures on that day. The six weekdays of work remind us of man’s past 6,000 years of slavery to Satan’s oppressive rule. The Sabbath day at the end of the week brings to mind the comforting rest mankind will experience during the Thousand Year Reign of Jesus. When Jesus Christ was on earth, he performed many of his miraculous cures on the Sabbath. To those who were offended by this he pointed out that he was “Lord of the Sabbath.” By this he was pointing forward to the Sabbath of a thousand years during which he will bring back mankind to perfection of body and mind. He will do for all mankind what he did for his people Israel back there. This will include even the raising of the dead."
I have to say:
"The Sabbath came after six days of work. It was a day of rest. Jesus performed (gave) many miracles on the Sabbath. Humans have been suffering 6,000 years. There will be 1,000 years of rest. Jesus will rule for 1,000 years. There will be peace. Humans will be happy. No one will be sick. No one will die. He will raise the dead."
I am learning!!! Thats the point of this process, to learn. I am very excited for my first talk in Persian. I was supposed to give one six months ago but I never got a talk slip and found out when I got to the meeting. I mean, if this was English, I would whip up an impromptu talk no problem, but in Persian, it'll take me a while to write it in English, then 'dumb it down', then translate it, then practice the life out of it. To give you an idea, this talk I'm working on now, its happening June 2nd. I wanted to give me plenty of time to get the process done. So I will let you know how its coming as I go along. Well my break is about over, back to work!
