'Be Still' by Rorie: A Psalm-echoing Unfurling of Surrender


Inspired by the Pslams, Rorie releases the song 'Be Still', which breaks down the essence of faith into two powerful elements: trust and surrender. Psalm 46 is one of the scriptures that has helped Rorie through her personal journey of health challenges. Psalm 46 speaks about God's constant presence in all stages and situations that we may face in our lives.

Rorie - Be StillThe lyrics express God's prevailing kindness and incomprehensible sacrifice. The One who conquered death and paid the price for our sins, also promises eternal peace and forgiveness.

When life's chaos throws us around like a ship on stormy seas, we often need that grounding reminder to 'Be still'. Rories' lyrics, accompanied by lovely chords on her guitar, reaffirm that divine assurance. Allow God to take charge. Allow Him to lead you to safe havens when all else fails. Let the Lord Almighty rule over your mind and heart.

Rories' simple beachy vibes encourage you to sit down by the campfire of God's love. Sing along, feel the warmth of the fire, and let the song embrace your heart with divine comfort. Listen to 'Be Still' while reflecting on how the lyrics relate to your daily struggles and experiences. Anchor your heart in the knowledge that God is our Redeemer, Savior, and LORD. Allow His waves of peace to wash over you.

(Related scripture: Psalm 46:10; Hebrews 9:28; Isaiah 26:3-4)

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.

"Lead Me To The Cross" by Tiffany Ford: Surrendering All at the Cross

Tiffany Ford's rendition of "Lead Me To The Cross" is a tribute to the original song that was released approximately 10 years ago, around the same time that Tiffany started attending church with her family. The song beautifully reflects her own journey of learning about Jesus, especially His style of teaching … not by telling people what they needed to do, but by loving, healing, serving, and through His sacrifice.  One of Tiffany's favorite lines is "Rid me of myself," a contrast to the worldly focus of more is more, and shifting focus to faith, where we have all that we need, and embrace true freedom in Him. Tiffany emphasizes the message she found behind this line: "Lay your worries, your hang ups, lay everything down at the cross and follow me. Jesus died a death he didn't deserve so that we could live freely and this song serves as a good reminder for me."   It all comes together in the lines: "Savior I come // Quiet my soul, remembe...
