Anya’s First Children’s Choir Performance

14 December 2008One Comment

It truly is heart-warming to see Anya willingly joined the children choir sometime in the middle of this year.

And I felt it was such a privilege too to watch her explore and develop her God-given talents at such a young age.

Today, they all performed at the Christmas Gospel Rally, for their very first time!

[The choir gown was too huge for her, and I spent a good three hours or so sewing parts of it so that at least she could see her own little hands and walk around without stepping onto her own gown!]

I was honestly a little concerned about whether she’d suddenly choose to NOT go on stage that day though. It happened before – twice, on different occasions – and I know I really shouldn’t be totally surprised if she really did freak out and freeze.

But.

She was completely fine that day! Thank God!

Yes she refused to have her afternoon nap, but she was totally in a good mood! She hummed her two songs at home, and even asked me to go through all the words of the songs together with her on our way there.

I was really happy, and moved, when I saw her stand on stage together with her choir friends singing in front of everyone, and God Himself.

It was her very first involvement in a children choir ministry. And I just felt so blessed to have witnessed it myself.

God worked so wonderfully in her, ESPECIALLY that day, and I’m constantly amazed.

Anyway, here’s my prayer for our little Anya:

May you continue to explore and use your God-given talents for the glory of God. Not to bring glory to self, but to be a great blessing to others THROUGH your life and TILL the end of your life. Amen.
