Music Saved My Life

I was born with an ear for music. I have always loved to sing. Music has been a very important part of my life… still is. All this is for a reason. God has called me to the music ministry and He has prepared me for it from the day I was born… way before I was born, actually.

He has anointed me to hear music sharply with my ears and listen to notes with discernment. He has bestowed the ability upon me to learn songs fast and to harmonize effortlessly. God has equipped me for such a time – and a calling – as this.

God has honed my singing talent and listening skills during the five years of ministry with the New Life Sounds Choir. And now, after a full year with the MCF Riverband -- our congregation's worship team -- I have learned to war in worship and to war with music. The Lord has taught me to consecrate the weapons He has given me -- my voice, my ears, my eyes -- and use them only for the glorification of His name.

In a way, music did save my life, because through it the Lord showed me who I am in Him, how I can fight victoriously, and how I can influence others for Christ.
