Decision to make
I was deciding if I should join the main service worship team again after a long break. I really miss leading worship and playing drums. When Chia Ee was born, I thought may be this could be a new beginning partly due to the break I have from my Regional Leader (RL) duty in the Youth Cell. But how foolish I am to think that I could relinquish my duty just like that. No one else is stopping me from doing what I wanna do except for the Holy Spirit. No matter how near I come to make a decision, I am reminded about the calling that I have in Grace. It is as if it's a God-given mandate to fulfil my call as a RL. The pull of the youth ministry remains strong even though my flesh wanna drum again. I guess ultimately, I can't drum others into the kingdom of God, but I surely can "drum" the gospel into their ears!
Thus I am serving my last in the main service for now. The new schedule of playing two straight weeks in G1 and G2 will definitely disrupt my role as an RL. It's not a decision that I'd like to consider, but it's a sacrifice that is worth to make.
So com'on this weekend! I'll play my best for Him... on my drums!

Jenn,
You have so much to give as a RL. Playing drums is your passion,can see it when you play but i know ur heart is for and with the youths so press on bro! :)
Samuel 24:24 "But the king replied to Araunah, 'No, I insist on paying you for it. I will not sacrifice to the LORD my God burnt offerings that cost me nothing.'"
I believe this sacrifice that you have made in order to be an RL is a fragrant and pleasing offering and worship to Him =)
Perhaps sometime in the future, the opportunity will arise for you to lead worship and play drums again. Who knows =D Till then, you can be sure many of us will miss your thunderous drumbeats.
I just read today, "To obey is better than sacrifice". It's so cool!
Anyway, thanks Rachel and Angie for the affirmation. I'll press and tarry on!
