Editor's Note
It is the end of 2014 and although Thanksgiving is over, there is one thing I would like to share with you. Every summer I have been invited to share and perform in anartists conference. This year I invited another professional dancer in Christ to dance a duet with me. Because all programs in the afternoon were delayed, the Program Director decided -an hour before the evening gathering- to shorten the sermon, my sharing time and all performances (including our duet). Our dance piece could not be changed, because the music and choreography had been set so only the sharing could be cut short. I was really upset because a similar situation occurs every year. Why could they not implement the program on time? I complained to God, but also submitted to the director’s decision, and prayed to God to give me peace of mind. I went to the teachers’ lounge to eat and came across the founder of the conference. He asked me what was going on as he had heard that my program was to be cut short. I did not talk to him much. I just told him that over the years I have never exceeded the time given to me for sharing and performance and never disrupted other people's time; but because of people’s mistakes that afternoon, the evening program was affected. Then I returned to the theater. When I was standing in the back to watch the opening show, the Program Director said to me, “Ginny, you can present your whole sharing & dance.” I was speechless, and full of gratitude; God really loves me! That evening, my program was the only one that was not shortened. God's omniscience and control really amazed me.
