July 18

Hi, how are you?
I just want to say "Thank you" to everyone.
with all your help, I can sing as a leader during worship time.
to be honest,
to stand in front of people and to lead make me so nervous.
and sometime I do not feel well because of maybe...stress or just tired.
and maybe I am sometimes moody.
but before worship, I saw that some members were practicing like playing a guiter or
a drum. that makes me back to in front of God... I mean I start to focus on God.
to become a leader is not easy.
once school starts, I would get a lot of stress,
maybe my mind or heart would be fragile.
now I just realize that I cannot become a leader with your help.
so Thank you so much.
I have read Isaiah 41:10 last night,
and it encourages me a lot...

so do not fear, for I am with you;
do not be dismayed, for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you;
I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Love in Jesus Christ,

Aki,

Your heart and smile are amazing and encourages me each time I hear you worship. The reason why I love it when you worship is BECAUSE of your fragility and humility. I don't like it when people lead worship who aren't broken before the Lord, as well as those who speak. It is a privilege to worship God, and an even greater privilege to lead others in worship. You do a wonderful job because you rely on God so much...don't lose that...

And in regards to the coming stress when school starts, I would ask that you lean on me as a brother in the Lord. There are many who absolutely love you, and I am one of them. Take heart, the Lord your God loves you even more...
