Gospel musician, Cecilia Marfo, winner of the \u201cBest Gospel Song of the Year\u201d at the just ended MTN Ghana Music Awards 2011, seems not to be perturbed or disappointed for not winning the ultimate award. <\/p>\n
She is rather appreciative of the single award she carried home.<\/p>\n
Cecilia who was tipped by many Ghanaians to win the topmost award, the \u201cArtiste of the Year\u201d, was full of praise to God Almighty for how far He has brought her. This was in an exclusive interview with Peacefmonline.com. <\/p>\n
\u201cWhat God wants is what He does. If it is your time for God to bless you no matter what people say or think about you, He will surely bless you. What God says and wishes for me is different from what human beings think. The Bible says, in all things we should give thanks and praises to God. <\/p>\n
So I am very happy that among the numerous gospel musicians in Ghana my name was mentioned and I even went ahead to win an award. What is most important for me is, above all, to be rewarded in heaven because I believe the real award is in heaven. Even if I had not won any award, I wouldn\u2019t have been worried at all,” she told peacefmonline.com. <\/p>\n
Asked if she was disappointed for not winning the ultimate award as thousands of Ghanaians wished for her, she said everything happens for a reason. \u201cI was not disappointed at all because we are human, only God is truthful. For us on earth, we are just flesh. What God wants is not want human beings want. It is true that a lot of people wanted me to win but God knows best. I give all thanks to the Most High God. <\/p>\n
The reason why I do music is to win souls and change lives so that even if someone wants to commit suicide, my song can change the person\u2019s mind. If I die one day and God is rewarding people I know he will reward me greatly. The Bible says, in Him is eternal life and joy\u201d. <\/p>\n
The \u201cAfunumuba\u201d hit maker said, she is very glad people have accepted her songs adding that sometimes what others wish for you might harm you if you do get it. \u201cGod knows best, and He will never let anything untoward happen to His Children. <\/p>\n
I don\u2019t consider the award I received as coming from any living being, it is God who has rewarded me and not man. All Ghanaians who wanted me to win shouldn\u2019t be worried. I thank all of them for their prayers and support,\u201d Cecilia said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
