'Abel to Jesus' by E. James Smith: A Melodious Journey from Beginnings to Aspirations


E. James Smith's new song 'Abel to Jesus' is a song with a strong rock base, a soulful horn section, and lively choral vocals. The story of this song, 'Abel to Jesus', tells something we all know too well: the ups and downs of life form us into who we are. Through faith, we have the confidence that all of these experiences are molding us into who we were meant to be. As a result, the name we've been given or the problems we've faced don't really matter. What really shapes us is allowing God to use these experiences to help us grow, improve and ultimately, do our best. Through the raw honesty of Smith's lyrics, the essence of our humanity finds a voice. 

E. James Smith - Abel to JesusJust as fascinating is the fact that Smith got the idea for 'Abel to Jesus' from looking through a phone book. I doubt if 'Abel de Jesus' realizes that his name helped to spark a masterful song of faith. A song highlighting that the journey from 'Abel,' who represents our beginning, to 'Jesus,' who represents how we strive to be the best version of ourselves, is both unique to each of us and shared by everyone.  

'Abel to Jesus' by E. James Smith is not only inspiring, but masterfully combines all of our complex human experiences into a beautiful song to reflect life's journey in general. It's a song that makes us reflect, resonate, and stirs our hearts. Give it a listen. Let it speak to your heart as you clap along to its energizing tune.

"The Bottom of Myself" by Mike Janzen: Grace at Rock Bottom

"The Bottom of Myself" by Mike Janzen is a spiritual journey with an Americana-pop groove. The song invites you into a space where the dark moments of life meet light.  Have you ever felt as if you were lost in a desert storm? Then you're not alone. Janzen also knows that feeling. He beautifully captures the struggle of losing your way with the following lyrics: "Fell down in the middle of the darkness // Woke up and the world had changed // Stumbling, squinting in the daylight // Wanna run but sometimes you gotta wait." But there is more, because Janzen shows that there is hope.  Instead of running away from the pain, Janzen sings: "sometimes you gotta wait." Why? Because at the end of yourself is God. Your weakness is where His strength begins. "When the clocks tickin twelve it's true // At the bottom of myself is You," this is where truth emerges. You might be trying to find your way home, but real peace comes when you stop striving...
