It was so scary. Standing up there, not sure how it was going to sound… Not sure if the band would vibe with it. Knowing that I was about to perform a song I wrote at like 8am that same day, I was terrified. I messed up words, chords, basically everything. But it was a feeling I can’t explain or replicate and something I want to experience over and over again.

I am honored to be a child of God. His daughter forever and ever. My trust feels naive but it’s strengthened by His glory. I have so much faith in God’s faith in me. I know that He wouldn’t call me where I’m not supposed to be. So, I feel confident doing things scared. I know that fear will always be present. I’ll be nervous to make decisions forever. I’ll hesitate. But, I’ll still do it.

In these moments, I turn to God. I believe fully in God’s goodness and that every gift of expression I have is a gift from God. To follow this path is to follow God’s plan for my life. To look forward and ignore what other’s may think (including what I may think honestly). Run towards my dreams knowing God’s already set it all in stone for me as I continue.
