13 days.
That's time left before my Grade 8 Piano Examinations.
I had chosen to do my 8th Grade in six months, rather than a year, and what I'm looking at right now is an unfinished coverage of syllabus, and a lack of quality during practice.
Am I nervous, or even the slightest bit scared? Definitely.
Am I sure that God will help me through this? Absolutely.
My decision may be seen as an incredulously foolish decision, but I believe this is a marvellous opportunity to proclaim the awesomeness of God and how puny our thoughts are, about God.
Even as I'm trying my best to practice real hard, setbacks are aplenty, and it is difficult. But stumbling upon this verse again really helped me, it's such a beautiful verse!
"You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is set on you, because he trusts in You."
I wrote this down on a little card to encourage myself. How wonderful it is to know that God is always there for me whenever I need Him! :)
And so the next time my left hand refuses to cooperate, or when I just can't hit the timing on the metronome, I'll always keep in mind this verse and marvel at the sovereignty of God in his glory. :))))) <3
Maybe you can try applying this verse to your life - in your next exam, test or maybe just a dreaded visit to the dentist, you can be sure that if you trust God to take you through, he'll never let your heart experience more that it can take, and that you will be kept in PERFECT PEACE. :)
