A big compliment

On the first Sunday in August I spoke at the All Age service at Church about mission and I used five key words that spell out the word 'shine' as the passage I was using from Matthew said that we had to shine like lights. I didn't make it explicitly clear in my talk that the words spelt out shine so imagine my surprise when a member of the congregation came up to me this Sunday and said 'I've been thinking about your talk this week and I realised that your five words: scared, honesty, infuse, normal and exciting spell out the word shine. Was that deliberate?'

What a compliment that a whole week later someone can recite every point from your talk. I felt smug!
