“For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place and you and your father's house will perish. And who knows whether you have not attained royalty for such a time as this?" Esther 4:14 (NASB)
A second generation Asian-American, Hope grew up as a refugee living in the states. Though there were different struggles growing up--just like any other family--there was a plan for her life that was already God-ordained.
Growing up, Hope learned the basics of playing the keyboard and learned to play the violin in a group setting. Most recently, Hope has been learning how to play the guitar and songwriting. Even though Hope is somewhat musically inclined, she does not claim to be the best at any instrument or one of the best vocalists around. Hope's main goal is to minister to people through music and testimony to further the Lord's kingdom--fulfilling the Great Commission. Many have given great feedback on her songs--but most importantly it is the way that her lyrics are articulated to convey a heartfelt message that makes her music real to her audiences, young and old.
Esther 4:14 is a key passage for her ministry because, like Esther, we are all being prepared, broken, molded to be whom we are called to be. We have the ability to share the free gift of salvation---it is up to us to decide if we are willing to step out and do our part.
Many thanks in advance for your support of her ministry. We hope that you will be blessed, challenged and encouraged. May the Lord Bless you and keep you.
"For such a time as this."
I'm doing great! I wish I was able to go to the CSBY Rally in ATL, but I have membership class at church. It's funny looking at the directory and being seperate from the my parents. That's cool that they did that. I hope that we'll be able to jam sometime like at CECYC '05. God bless!
Hey! I actually had a chance to sit down and listen to all the songs today. I really love "Come to Me". The lyrics are so good. You have a way with words. It was great to hear you sing & play again too! I think it's been since camp? HOPE all is well...take care!
You have been accused of accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and savior and bombarding God with prayers! You are hereby sentenced to Everlasting Life, No bail, No Appeal. You have been labeled Blessed and hereby detained in God's custody forever, Amen. You have been destined to make it and you shall surely achieve all your goals. If you believe send it to all your friends including me that sent it to you. Sorrow looks back, worry looks around, but FAITH looks up. Lord, grant me patience to endure my blessing...... When the devil comes knocking at your door, simply say...
