I live in Canada i'm 20 years old, I've played piano since i was 5 years old. I wanted to become a professional pianist, but I think God had other plans about that.

I kept fighting and fighting, wanting my own will over his own. Eventually I got to a point in my life where I was on top of my game, I was playing the highest level of piano, performing 3-4 hours a week getting paid $50/hour while i performed for crowds of hundreds. I really thought I was on the fast track to going places, and then God stuck. I only cared about my plan, which was to become a famous pianist.

God wants something else from me. So I got something called Paricarditous. It's the inflammation of the outer sack of the heart, EXTREMLY painful. It stopped me dead in my tracks as I was hospitolized..not once...not twice...but three times, I kept getting it over and over. Part of the sickness effects your muscle system, so my arms got very weak, and I could not play piano the same way anymore.

I lost all the conditioning I had done on them, and quickly developed tendentious in both my arms. I also got ulcers etc, and really hit a low point...I rejected got even more after all this happened for close to a year, but then I found God, and I heard his voice.

Now i LOVE God, and I want to serve him, and do the work he has for me:) That's when I started making these video lessons on how to play piano, so that I could share my knowledge of music with other future worship leaders to help train up God's army!

This is by no means the full story, I've compressed about 3 years of events into a VERY short space. Anyway, God bless ^_^
