'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable.

"For The Sake Of My Soul (Upbeat Version)" by Carli Lessing: Finding the Quiet in a Noisy World

"For The Sake Of My Soul (Upbeat Version)" by Carli Lessing is a refreshing song for anyone who feels overwhelmed by the chaos of today's world.

I remember thinking, "I don't need more of this, I need a whole lot less". It felt like all these things were just taking me away from the important things - spending time with God and making space for my family."   Carli effectively captures that moment of clarity in her song, when priorities shift from the trivial to the eternal, "I don't need more, I need less."
