I learned that the best thing I can do when I am called on to share is take a moment before I say a word to say a quick prayer asking my HP to help me to say what needs to be said and to hear what needs to heard. This way I take the focus off from me. It also allows me a chance to get centered. Helps ease the nervousness and fear of speaking. Then I just start with my experience then share my strength (something about my HP) and my hope. If I find I feel like I am rambling I just say something like it seems I am just rambling here so it is time for someone else to share, thanks. I try not to put a lot of pre-thought into what I am going to say. That just led me to not hear what others were saying. By listening to others instead of planning what I would say if called on I have found that it helps me when I share as what they say often leads me into what I say.
I don't know if that made sense but that is my experience.
By the way, the only meetings in my area where one has to stand up and share at a podium are podium meetings or speaker meetings.
