'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)

"Take the Wheel" by Bonnie Jean Bailey: Why Surrender Feels So Hard

What are you still holding on to instead of giving it to God?  Three in the morning has a way of exposing what we’ve been avoiding all day. Bonnie Jean Bailey knows that hour well. In her song “Take the Wheel,” she sings about the tossing and turning, being “sick and tired of all this worrying,” and bags so heavy they threaten to burst. Can you picture that? Most of us carry something similar. Possibly we don’t call it a levy as Bonnie does, but the burden isn’t less.  Bonnie points out a pattern that we need to be aware of… “Every time I try to hand it over, I take it back cuz I need control of everything.” Does this sound familiar? We pray about something that is worrying us, feel a moment of relief, and then quietly pick up the burden again an hour or so later.  Bonnie isn’t preaching from a distance here. She’s describing her own tug-of-war between fear and faith. And to be honest, that could also be my tug-of-war that she is describing. Is it also your tug-of-war a...

"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....

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...
