今天首次在Nilai Methodist教会带领敬拜。 怎么说呢? 也许上帝想教我如何谦卑吧。
起先,我以’叫我抬起头的神‘为开幕,再以 So You Would Come, 耶稣我需要你,Thank You for the cross 来待续。 对众反应不错。但是接下来的 Shine Like Stars 却成为我心中的羞耻。这首歌大家都很不熟悉。本来想说可以介绍给大家,因为本人觉得这首歌还蛮不错的。但是俗话说啊:“期望越高,失望越大。” 我经历的正是如此。当我介绍起这首歌的时候,大家看起来闷闷的。我慌起来,结果接下来把整个气氛都搞砸了。
一直以来,我都深信上帝赐给我了‘台上秀’的天赋。回想起第一次在肖邦教会握起麦克风带领敬拜后,有数位姐妹会向前称赞几句,我的尾巴都翘得高高的。同样的,今天的我自信满满。我明白,带领敬拜主要是为上帝而服侍,绝不是要炫耀自己的才华。我也常常祷告,让神能够掌管一切。我祈求神说,神啊,我知道傲慢是我的弱点。如果我自以为是,你就大大的让我跌倒,我才能学习。
果真,这慈悲的上帝聆听我祷告,给我今天跌了一脚。感谢主,这一脚不严重,是个小小的警告和提醒。虽然说蛮伤心,蛮难过的。但是没关系,这次的教训会让我下次更谨慎吧。

I understand your feeling. Although I don't understand the mandarin =.=. Hahaha (I copied pasted in google translate). There was a time I felt the same thing in my own church. I thought that I had practiced so well and I expected that the youths would be shouting and enjoying, but it was really different than I could imagine. Nevertheless, I still do not want to give up! You too kay! ;) because we are not loosers! I had one Christian teacher who could sing so high with 3.1 octaves voice, previously in her past she was a shame for the family as she was the only one among 4 daughthers who sang with low key. She cried...and with a 'humble' heart she asked God to open up her voice because she really wanted to serve as a worship leader. One day, God granted her wish and everyone was astonished by her GREAT voice! Today she can sing even better than all her talented sisters! I believe all those great singers Darlene Joyce, Chris Tomlin, Lucy Liu and etc also had ever encountered this. I guess God wants us to have a humble heart. He does not want us to be arrogant, so maybe that is why we go through this situation. Jia you ah girl! Always be passionate to serve God with your voice! ;)
