WHEEE, today was an experience. My first dance performance in the auditorium and it was so fun. The above schedule practically summarises my Sunday at church. It was tiring and I had a throbbing pain in my head but it was all worth it. So much fun! We performed for a crowd of almost 20,000 during the 4 services at church - in the auditorium and overflow rooms.
Jeremiah 29:11
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
Out of the four, I really liked our performance for the 1st service. For those unfamiliar to NCC, the first service is usually made up of families, but mostly it's a mature, older crowd. Imagine this - while we were on stage, the crowd was silent. It was so quiet I didn't know what to make of their reaction. But when the music ended, the applause was simultaneous! The cheers were so unexpected! And looking at hands going up in the crowd is truly amazing, especially when you least expect it!
Romans 11:29
For God's gifts and his call are irrevocable.
I will miss this dance piece. I will miss the times we dancers hung out together. Friendships have blossomed and I was telling a friend that it only seems like yesterday when I entered the dance studio, not knowing anyone. Total strangers. And now, we're having lunches together, talking about anything and everything despite the youngest dancer being only 14, and the oldest at 25.
Deuteronomy 29:6
You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out.
I am what I am today only because of His grace and His love for me. The path of the righteous can only get brighter and brighter. Love you too, Daddy!
