Man tough tough tough decison to make....
some of you would know that today is my audition to play with an internationally popular band as an acoustic guitarist for their concert in singapore and since when i got the call from the representative I was so so so so so excited..... I was like practicing like crazy man on top of my 3 hours everyday with my "WIFE" (Guitar) ....... I downloaded all their songs and practiced them crazily... but God has other things for me...
I was leading worship in church on sunday. Since the start of the worship there was a picture on my mind of a lady dancing in front of God and God was sitting right on top of the stage and was well pleased with the lady and He was tearing saying that He has given ppl gifts which only ended up using for others kingdom instead of His... This things shocked me.... God rebuked me thorugh this image which i saw during worship... Even as i write i know this is His rebuking and i do struggle with that.... I am human... I do commit sin and fail ppl and God.... In this situation i know if i Go ahaed with the audition i will fail Him....
I have decided not to go and i know many of my friends will say what a jack ass i am... I dont mind being one i rather face the wrath of man than of God... U honor Him He would honour u ........
