'Be Still' by Katie Devine: Immersed in Prayerful Serenity


In the midst of life's storms, it can be difficult to find sanctuary, to find the peace and quiet that our souls seek. Yet, in her song 'Be Still,' Katie Devine invites us to explore the divine sanctuary that awaits, a haven formed of faith's changing power and our Creator's comforting presence.

Katie Devine - Be StillDevine's lyrics, which are based on her own spiritual journey, portray a vivid, relatable picture of a heart tortured by challenges and fumbling through a world plagued with sorrow. As the soft waves of her melody surround us, we are urged to let go of our fears, to let go of our troubles, and to find refuge in the arms of the One who offers everlasting peace.

'Be still and know My child, come rest,' the chorus calls, echoing God's invitation to rest in His presence. It is a hope-filled assurance that blossoms with life-giving warmth, reminding us of His unwavering promises to cleanse, redeem, and never abandon those who trust in Him.

'Be Still' is a balm for the tired soul, a tender reminder of divine love that overflows even in the face of hardships, creating a foundation for us to ultimately find our purpose in Christ. Allow this music to enter your heart and reveal the wonderful shelter of God's peace within it.

(Related scripture: Psalm 46:10; Ephesians 1:7; Deuteronomy 31:8)

"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...

"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....
