I was just trying to explain this to my daughter yesterday! She is an amazing classical pianist and every year she puts herself out there playing in some of the most stressful competitions and at 15 she has yet to win one. Well, yesterday, was no different. She played amazingly and the place was so quiet and people around had their eyes closed and were so into her two pieces. When she was finished, she was glowing...she had done another amazing job, but when it came time to announce the winners, she took 3rd place (as usual)... I could see the tears in her eyes and she looked at me as to say; "again?" When she came down from the stage, she said to me "Mom, will I ever win?" As we were leaving; a gentleman and his wife; stopped us. He was really upset...He looked at my daughter and said "I have been in music for 20 yrs and never..never have I heard playing such as yours...my wife and I felt as though we should have bought tickets to hear you play. You made the hair on the back of my neck - stand straight up! It was thrilling to hear a musician; instead of a competitor. Thank you for touching our lives today." And they left! It made her day, and I tried to tell her that it wasn't about winning; and that God has plans for her; and to be patience (I know its hard ), but I believe God has a great plan for her. It like someone told me: Half the fun in life is finding God's plan for yourself; and the other half of the fun in life - Is getting to do it!! Amazing!

It made her day, and I tried to tell her that it wasn’t about winning; and that God has plans for her; and to be patience (I know its hard ), but I believe God has a great plan for her.
