AFritunes Week 73 || You are able - Ada Ehi (cover) by @jessicaossom

Sometimes last week, if I am not mistaken, it was when this week's suggestion was made in the Afritunes community.

@jesus-son begged me and few other people not to participate in this week's event in the Afritunes community, and I think that virtual jazz almost worked on me hahaha. 😂

Usually, when I am extremely busy, I find time to record my video on Wednesday and publish on Thursday morning. However, this week is somehow different.

Aside from Jesus-son's jazz 😂😂, I have been busy with work and assignments from school. I wasn't able to record a video until late this evening.

At some point, I had thought that this week's video will be postponed until next week. Also, I hoped to be able to catch up and get the video out as soon as possible.

Fortunately, I was able to record a video after making several attempts. My vocals felt tired and I was cracking a lot.

The video was recorded at my sister's house @treasuree and while I was cracking and experiencing difficulties, struggling to sing the part of the song with a higher note, my sister could stop laughing at me.

She mimicked me in a way that insinuated that I sounded like a monster,😂😂 she even posted me on her WhatsApp status 😂😂.

Eventually, I managed to finish recording the video and I was relieved. I knew that I could always go back and re-record if need be, but I was proud of myself for pushing through and not giving up despite the struggles.

Instead of re-recording, I added all the recordings I did including the audio and adjusted the volume where necessary. I wanted to give it a big chorus effect, and I didn't harmonize any part.

Let me know what you think and how I can improve.

The title of the song, as I introduced in the video is 'You are Able' by Ada Ehi.

God is the creator of all universe and is able to do all things. He gives us the strength to do all things, no matter what the circumstances are. He is the one who gives us the courage to face whatever challenges come our way. He is our ever-present help in times of trouble.

He is our refuge and our hope in times of despair. He loves us and is always with us. He is our guide and our protector.

I gave an example of my cousin who died. We had faith that she would not die. But does that mean God couldn't have saved her?

Well, God understands, and all he does is good. We don't always understand why certain things happen, but we can trust that God knows what is best. We have to remember that God is in control, and that He has a plan for us. Even though it may be difficult to accept, He loves us and will never leave us.
