GOD WINKED AT ME! AMTC here I come!

IT'S NEVER TOO LATE! I have really been remiss not posting- haven't I? I thought I had better since two individuals just today noticed!
So another journey begins for me and I am simply trusting God to take me where ever HE sees that I can use my talents and have an impact on others, their lives and their dreams.
Several weeks ago, I auditioned for AMTC-heard a commercial for it on WDCX radio( Actors, Models and Talent for Christ),a competition in Rochester; quite frankly, not fully understanding what it was that I was getting into. So upon registering ( the night before) I added that I may not be able to attend, as I had a really bad cold/cough, but I would let them know in the morn. My audition time was 2pm and at 11:30 am I was sitting at the kitchen counter still contemplating if my voice would "work" if I went. I suddenly felt a "wink" if you will, from God saying "GO- you'll never know if you don't - you will be fine" - AT total peace, I showered, hopped in my car, not knowing what I would sing exactly- and off I went. The auditions were non-threatening, prayerful and fun- When I arrived back home I logged onto the AMTC website and discovered that if I were chosen , I would be auditioning at a convention of 50-100 directors, agents, etc. from all over the world! I found actors and singers, models and product spokespeople who had been discovered through this AMTC convention. My heart raced, and then sank, thinking that I would never be selected, but less than 24 hours later, I received a call back- They wanted ME! I prayed for almost two weeks before making a decision to go and see what God might be able to do with me! So I am busy with vocal training, memorizing monologues and commercial scripts, finding backtracks, then will come photo shoots, rehearsals and in July the competition all under the careful watch of the amazing and caring AMTC staff of incredible people. Is God winking at YOU? He may be - pay attention- listen carefully!
