Jacquelyn Owens - Kingdom (CCM)


In a world that is frequently filled with chaos and confusion, it is easy to lose sight of what truly matters. But, in the midst of it all, Jacquelyn's song 'Kingdom' reminds us of what is truly important. Jacquelyn shares that 'Kingdom' is based on scripture found in Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4, better known as the Lord's Prayer. The lyrics express a deep desire for His will to be done, as well as our willingness to follow Him wherever He leads us.

One of the song's lines that stick in my mind is 'Let my desires be Your desires, I wanna love just like You do.' A line in the lyrics that makes me ask myself if I can truly love as He does. I know that I'm not perfect, but I can still aim to let go of my own desires and seek what it is that God wants me to do and discover what truly matters in today's world.

Jacquelyn Owens - Kingdom'Kingdom' is a very nice song, well crafted, and an excellent addition to the range of powerful songs that inspire us to keep our focus fixed on those things that truly matter in our lives and for the people around us.

The repeated refrain 'Kingdom come, Thy will be done, right here on earth as it is in heaven' (from 'The Lord's Prayer') reminds me that God's Kingdom is not just something that will happen in the future, but it is already something we can experience right here and now if and when we align our hearts and wills with His.

There is so much noise and distractions around us, and I see 'Kingdom' as a powerful encouragement to focus on what truly matters.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Thankful" by Lowen: The Practice of Being Thankful

Lowen's "Thankful" isn't one of those typical feel-good gratitude songs. Life is good most of the time… and even when it hurts, there's often something quietly waiting inside the pain, like a lesson, a softening, or a deeper understanding. Lowen found inspiration for this song in what Stephen Colbert once said, "… he learned to love the thing he most wished had never happened, and that simply being here is a gift. Gratitude means holding all of it, not just the easy parts."   The lyrics open with a warm anchor: "Every day that I wake, I just feel so thankful." We're encouraged not to flinch from the messy middle. This is not about ignoring life's quakes! Lowen admits, "honesty is telling me I need space" when the world feels unsteady. In other words, the gratitude that Lowen sings about isn't about forcing a smile through pain — it's about meeting every moment (including the hard moments) with presence, care, and res...

"He Must Increase" by Rorie: Humbling ourselves in God’s presence

Inspired by the verses John 3:30, Philippians 3:7–8, and John 10:27, Rorie releases "He Must Increase", a beautiful song that reminds us of the sound of CCM from the 2000s, easily the era when the rise of CCM was at its peak. Rorie sings the song with earnestness as she opens the lines "The seasons change and we are aging, But You alone are God of the ages." You'll immediately know that this song is putting God front and center. There's a certain aspect of the song that clearly wants to remind us that God will always be bigger than us. That his glory and mercy will always shine through, and we are mere travelers in the world that he built. Everything emanates from him, and we cannot claim to be bigger than God.  It's a humbling reminder that what we have, what we attained, it all comes as a blessing that He has gifted to us. We cannot claim that it is our works that brought us the joys and triumphs. These gifts and accomplishments are nothing without Hi...
