'For My Sake' by Tim & Billy – Remembering with Hope


'For My Sake' by Tim & Billy is an ode to the loved ones that have passed away, a heartfelt conversation that's as sincere as those screen porch heart-to-hearts it describes. Billy began writing this song around Father's Day and quickly realized that the lyrics were about his own father and mother. Tim & Billy release this as a song for anyone who has lost or is missing a loved one. 

Tim & Billy - For My SakeAs you listen, you can almost feel the cool morning air they once enjoyed and hear the creak of those old wooden rocking chairs on the porch. The laughter and the wisdom that is shared over countless cups of coffee. As the song goes on, we're reminded that even though we may be feeling sad, Christ's death bridges the gap between our temporary goodbyes in this life and our eternal hellos in heaven. 

In Christ, our temporary pain of losing a loved one is met with eternal peace, and that helps to process the loss a little bit easier, and the separation more bearable.

May 'For My Sake' spark those precious memories and help you look forward to a joyful reunion with loved ones. Whenever you find yourself grieving a loss, think about this song and let it hug your heart, renew your faith, and comfort you.

(Related scripture: Revelation 21:4; 1 Corinthians 15:55; Philippians 1:23)

'The Fall' by Josh Wright: Embracing Healing Through Pain

Josh Wright's new song, 'The Fall,' is about the dark and heavy moments that often come with loss, grief, and sin. Most of us have been there, feeling a deep sense of guilt and shame. But that is not where God wants us to linger! Yes, it's important to understand the consequences of our actions, but there is also a next chapter. God wants us to 'get up' and 'keep going.'  Josh beautifully sings about this next chapter in 'The Fall.' With lyrics like, 'I didn't want the valley, I didn't want the dark,' you can feel the pain and reluctance that Josh experienced. He continues, 'Nobody wants to stumble or ever hit the ground. Nobody wants to have to hurt for healing to be found.'   Josh emphasizes that although we're not looking for pain, it does play an important part in understanding God's love. If there is no contrast, e.g., no pain, then how will we be able to appreciate God's love and plan for us? This is how
