This verse was what the sermon was about this morning in church, and I can't help but be enlightened with this as my first audition in NYC is coming up this week. I was always the nervous performer. I let it inhibit me, hold me back. I never believed in my abilities that God has blessed me with. But then I found a peace after I went into an audition and gave up all anxiety and was cast as a leading role. I realized, why be nervous? How can you ever show the casting directors that you are what they want for that role if you don't perform up to your full potential? I was holding myself back. But this is only in relation to local community and regional theatre. My first audition in NYC is nerve-wrecking, and while I was trying to maintain my new philosophy, I was still finding some nerves surrounding the whole event. The flights, the taxi plans, the right song choice. But this passage reminded me this morning that I do not need to be anxious about anything. Mainly because I know that regardless of the outcome of my audition, God has a plan for me. If I don't land this gig, it wasn't in his plan. That is what reminds me that it isn't sad or because I'm lacking talent. It's simply because the big man upstairs has a different plan for me. And that, THAT I can handle.
