Pray for me.

Yeah, I know that this is a selfish prayer, but I need y'all to pray for me as I start memorizing my piano piece for Fine Arts(Well Ive got bits and pieces in my head.). The piece is 5 pages long and really longer than anything else that I have played.
The reason Im making a thread for this is because Doubt(One of Satan's demons) attacked me(Okay that sounds really cheesy and very Pilgrim's Progressy, but it illustrates my point.). Doubt is very real thing and it can come upon anyone at any time which will hinder any progress they may have made and are going to make. I made the mistake of letting it in and then I had a really low point that made me think, "What are you crazy trying to memorize all of this?! You might as well just quit right now!" But luckily my parents caught me to think otherwise. Ive been playing for 8 years and other the years, it gets really tough and more stressful. Other the years most of what I hear from my piano teachers is just criticism and hardly any encouragement(Don't worry they are Christians, I know that they think well of me, and I can understand the criticism because it's their job. However, I would like some encouragement to keep me going.)
Thus brings me to my request for you guys. I want you guys to pray for me that I may not be overcome with doubt(That I can be assured in my piano playing through God's help.) and that I can hopefully memorize my whole piece the best I can. It's not going to be perfect, but Im going to try anyway.
