i .... cannot.

 

I wish i can play keyboard like so many ones. I had my grade 8 cert but that does not meant anything. I strive to practice that same old pieces for exam, scales that i practice a thousand times. I do not remember ppracticing other pieces besides exam pieces. I remember how i hated piano.. because my teacher would scold us so loud and so often.. and my dad would drag me there by force. Many times of wanting to give up. Finally after so many years, i got my cert. "yay".

but...

 

when i play in a christian setting with those chords, it amazed me how i "cannot" play. I felt abit stupid.. and many times i tried to explain to different ones again and again -  is not i do not want to "Give u the thing you wanted".. is because "this is what i got".. and this is what i can give. I can improve, but is not a one night thing.

i felt helpless. and pray so hard each time before i practice..that somehow MIRACLE would take place and Lord, a sweet spirit and pure heart to face each practice.

amen.

Actually the whole passage was talking about me, ha! Just that I have yet to touch Christian songs, I don't even have the gut to play.

And I thought you played keyboard @ lifegroup?

The first paragraph was talking about me eh? I was exactly the same as what you described, just that my teacher didn't scold, but the part that I didn't remember I practised songs other than exam pieces, and there was always forces and unwilling behind, this is so true....
