Peace and relaxation

After so many months of being the imam, I still get goosebumps whenever the time comes for leading the prayers. It is something I need to overcome, no doubt about it. My heart beats faster, my throat gets drier and sometime I lose my voice. Recently I read an article of a person who left his high paying job just so that he can become an imam of a mosque where the pay is a mere fraction of what he was getting. But he loves it. He finds peace and relaxation in being an imam. How I wish I can be like him. I pray to Allah that one day I can find peace and relaxation as well. That I can recite the quran in a calm and relax manner. That I can lead the prayers, all because of Allah.
