'Desperate' by Mosaic MSC: Finding Strength in Vulnerability


This is such a wonderful live performance of 'Desperate' by Mosaic MSC, made at Mosaic, Los Angeles, in 2023. The lyrics are as if you are listening in on a heartfelt prayer to God. 

Mosaic MSC - Desperate - Live at Mosaic, Los Angeles, 2023So many people feel a huge void in their lives and long for something to fill that void. We realize that this is something that only God can truly satisfy. 'Desperate' is about our need for His guidance and presence and our deep desire to know Him more. 

'Desperate' reminds us that there is absolutely nothing wrong about admitting that we need God. The lyrics also encourages us to trust, wait, and move with Him. It's a call to action to run to Him, even when it's 'dark aroung you,' because He's the only light we really need. This is a call to embrace your vulnerability and find strength in your faith. 

So if you're feeling that pull and are looking for something to fill your void, then give this song a listen. Let it remind you that, in your need, we will find God. Trust Him, wait for Him, and move with Him. He's got 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...
