As I was scanning through my drafts, I was surprised that I never posted this. ITs been a while since the time that this was suppose to be posted. But oh well, anywayz, here goes. Pretend that it was APril 27, 2008. A month ago.
Tomorrow is the day. When were going to get up on stage to lead the people into worship.
Well, it is all our first time except for Ian. And I know, we were all nervous. It is my first time to play the keyboard in church in an actual Sunday Service. I've played for our teens and singles fellowship and our prayer meeting. But it's nothing compared to the Sunday Service tomorrow. Hay... I'm kinda feeling conscious about playing in church tomorrow. I know that whatever spirit I have in my heart it will affect the worship. But I know that I'm prepared for tomorrow and hopefully there will be no mistakes or comedy of errors tomorrow. hahahaha.... God will help us ofcourse.

IT was FINISHED!!!!! YOHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahaha.....
We did it!!! Well, my parents and I arrived early since Tito Bonny told us, to arrive early. DUH! WORSHIP TEAM! So we were early. I wasn't really nervous then and I felt fine. David greeted us when we came inside since there were only three people in church that time. David, the PK of the church, came in early to open the doors of the church.
After at least 15 minutes, most of the worship team came already and when Tito Bonny came we all prayed inside the Nursery Room and after that we were on!
I wasn't really alert that we had to start already. hahahaha... Yes it was 9am but it didn't hit me yet that, "HELLO! WERE GOING TO START!"
So I kinda stumbled up the stage and sat on my seat and Ate Danna (the SOng LEader) greeted the congregation (which were still few by the way. LATE COMERS!).
Then after her opening prayer and greetings (that had a few laughs hehehehe) she signalled the first song!
As the keyboardist, you always begin the intro so then I did. And that was the time I felt nervous! hahahaha.....
Well, the first song was okay but during the second song, I didn't know but I guessed I memorised the chords that I just kept playing then I realize that I wasn't looking at the piece anymore! Which got me nervous since I didn't know where I was. But I found it just the same.
Everything went fine, not until the free worship. Tito Bonny, gave us a list of chords to play during the free worship. So I decided to play the Gsus, G, Dsus, D and C pattern after the G-C ending of the last song.
IT TURNED OUT TO BE A BAD IDEA!!!!!!!!!!! WAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!
While I was playing, something was wrong. So Tito Bonny approached me and brought back the chords to G-C. Esther just smiled at me at my mistake hehehehehe... Cause she was in Rhythm guitar. The guitarists follow the keyboardists.
In which my Mom told me later in the car, "NEVER EVER CHANGE YOUR CHORDS IN YOUR FREE WORSHIP!"
Well, it was okay so after the free worship we sang another song and then, Ate Danna then decided to go for a break in which she said, "Lets take this time to minister to one another."
So I got up from my seat and then shook Ate Danna's hand for doing a great job and then I went to Esther and gave her a hi-5! hehehhe... I also shook hands with all the first timers well including Ian. hahahaha....
I FELT FULFILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I was so happy! ! ! When our PAstor (Esther's father) approached Esther and I and shook our hands, I can only say, "WOHOO!!!!!!! WHOA!" I didn't know but its like me and Esther felt this great feeling inside of us at that time!!!!!
Our PAstor laughed and cheered along. WELL TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THe praise and worship was all due to HIM!
