'Shadow' by Kosj Yamoah: Embracing Life's Shadows with Faith


Kosj Yamoah's song, 'Shadow,' draws inspiration from the well-known Psalm 23. Kosj doesn't just recite these passage; he brings them to life by connecting this song to his journey with his son, Zion. The valleys and shadows are more than just metaphors. They're real challenges - doubt, fear, anxiety - yet put into a different perspective through an unshakeable faith in God's presence.

Kosj Yamoah - ShadowListening to 'Shadow,' you're reminded that life does throw shadows our way. But the thing about shadow is that there is only a shadow when there is no light. As soon as there is light, the shadow is disappears. Kosj acknowledges that faith isn't blind to life's realities, but that light comes from a deeply rooted in the truth of God's promise that He will always be with us. It's a call to recognize, maybe even cherish, the presence of these shadows, because shadows actually testify to the light that is surrounding, guiding, and comforting us.

We haven't been promised a life that will be free of shadows, but we do have the promise of a life where we are never alone, and may watch how fear and doubt are replaced by His peace, light, and assurance.

(Related scripture: Psalm 23:1-4; Psalm 27:1; Isaiah 41:10)

Rhett Walker - Man on the Middle Cross (CCM)

Rhett Walker's CCM song, 'Man on the Middle Cross,' is a powerful reflection on the profound impact of God's grace and mercy. The song was inspired by a sermon by Alistair Begg, focusing on the two men crucified alongside Jesus, and the transformative power of Christ's sacrifice. The lyrics vividly describe the scene of three wooden crosses on a hill, with two sinners on either side of Jesus. The first verse expresses the realization that, at times, we all can relate to the sinners on the crosses—feeling guilty, regretful, and undeserving of God's love and forgiveness. The chorus beautifully captures the experience of both sinners, acknowledging that one has been on the left, filled with guilt and regret, while the other has been on the right, always seeking conflict and thinking forgiveness is beyond reach. The overwhelming theme throughout the song is the recognition of God's grace and mercy, which are not earned or deserved but freely given to all. The br...
