Conquering my Fears!

I asked a fellow MST, Lauren, to record the song Craig and I sang. Today I wasn't feeling well at all, but I wanted to do this. This whole week I have known I was going to sing and I asked everyone to pray because I get so anxious when I have to do things in front of other people. Craig was so encouraging and I told him I was going to take all of my cues from him.

The Remand Home is like DJJ. Empower a Child goes there every week and they like to do a special song/special music/special talent to encourage the children to use the talents the Lord has blessed them with. I felt like I would be a hypocrite to not sing for them. I am not the best singer by any means, but I refused to not praise the Lord through singing!

My friend Stefanie came up to me afterwards and said she cried because she knew how much I relied in the Lord to do that, she's amazing! I think most people who know me know, and don't believe, that I hate being in front of people. During this trip I have come to realize that the Lord deserves it and I will not be afraid! Anyways, I hope you enjoy it. At the end of the video you get to see the boys and girls we spent the afternoon with!
