Vanessa Mitchell - Love Will Remain
Vanessa was inspired to write the song after experiencing a transcendent reality two months after her father died. She was overcome with grief and sobbing uncontrollably, as if she were in a deep ditch. She felt her father's presence at that moment, as if he was giving her a warm hug from behind. She heard his voice, which sounded similar to her own, but she knew it was him speaking to her. He spoke soothing words of comfort and love to her, assuring her that only love would remain.

The song's lyrics were inspired by this transcendent moment, when the words her father spoke transformed into a melody. Vanessa believes she wrote the song with her father, and she sees it as a gift from him at a time when she needed it the most. She hopes that the song will bring comfort to others who are going through a difficult time, and that it will be a soothing balm for their heart's invisible wound.

The lyrics of the song are simple but powerful, offering words of comfort and support to anyone in grief. The chorus reiterates the message that only love will remain, reminding listeners that only love can truly heal a broken heart. The song expresses the pain of loss while also offering hope for the future and the promise that the pain will pass.

Vanessa Mitchell's 'Love Will Remain' is a lovely and inspiring song that deserves to be heard. The song's message of love and hope is sure to resonate with anyone who hears it, whether you are going through a difficult time yourself or want to offer comfort to someone else. So, take a moment to listen to this stirring anthem and allow its message of comfort and hope to wash over you.

"Three Times" by Mike Janzen: Forgiveness Beyond the Rooster's Cry

(by Jasper Tan) Emotionally raw, introspective, honest, and vulnerable, that's what Mike Janzen's latest single "Three Times" is. Exploring themes centered on guilt, failure, and finding redemption through the disciple Peter, the song aptly expresses that emotionally raw feeling when one is in a dire situation but remembers that Peter once denied Jesus "three times" yet Jesus forgave and loved him still. This is a novel way of connecting and finding inspiration from someone who had committed betrayal against Jesus, yet proved to be a testament of Jesus' love that even if he was betrayed, his love still remains.  Sometimes our strong faith also results in us being "dragged down" by guilt and shame, because we ask ourselves why we betrayed someone we had promised to put our complete trust and faith in. This often would lead us to be overwhelmed by our shortcomings, perhaps feeling shame. But as the song is trying to say, "Three Times" w...

"Green Enough Here" by John Long: Stop Chasing More and Start Living Now

What if the life you already have is actually the life you've been looking for? That's the question that John Long's song, "Green Enough Here", is answering. This song encourages us to take a fresh look at the endless chase in the world today, the one that encourages us to get more and more and more… John invites us to slow down, stay in the present, and find beauty in the ordinary. John doesn't waste time getting to the point: "Don't waste all of your time in the fast lane // Take it easy and learn to love the process." It's a simple message, opposite to what the world is telling us… that a full life is measured by what we have achieved or our status. Contrary to what the world is telling us, it's personal relationships, raising children, staying grounded, embracing the quiet seasons, and listening to God's guidance that matter most. The second verse takes the message a step further. "I'm done letting all my failures hold m...

"Dancing In Your Light" by Ora Street Mission Band: Shining Through Everyday Acts

Ora Street Mission Band put their finger on something important with "Dancing In Your Light." It's the fact that (as Christians) we don't generate our own light, we reflect God's light. It's like the moon reflecting the sun at night. As Christians, we are called to be lights to the world! The vibe of the song draws from a rich musical palette, inspired by The Police, Weather Report, and Toto, giving the song a contemporary groove that matches the song's present-day message. The song encourages you to come into action. So, what does it look like to live as a bearer of His light? The lyrics try to compare this with a firefly lit from within, and a lighthouse holding firm before a raging sea. Each comparison points to the same truth… His light is given to be shared with others. "If he has illuminated you, then fly and be free!" Jesus declared, "I am the light of the world." This song turns that fact into a call to action. Shine, move, and...
