Byrne Elliott's 'Ready to Begin': Tribute to a Journey of Faith and Strength


Byrne Elliott’s song 'Ready to Begin' is a tribute his mother. A woman who lived a life of faith, love, and resilience. A life that demonstrated that you can overcome all of life's hardships through unwavering faith and a heart filled with love.

Byrne Elliott - Ready to BeginHer life wasn't easy. She faced tremendous challenges raising her children, including the heartbreak of losing several of them. Despite all the pain and sorrow she faced, nothing could break her faith or harden her heart.

It's quite easy to relate to this song. Many listeners / readers will have faced times of pain and sorrow of their own or stood close to someone as they went through this. Elliot sings in such a manner that you can almost feel the tears, hopes, and the fierce determination captured in this song.

The lyrics talk about the strength that we all can find in God's promises. Strength that she held on to as the end of her life drew near, as she went from earthly pain to eternal peace. An example that shares a message of comfort and hope. This promise of a better tomorrow wrapped in God's love is so powerful and encouraging.

'Ready to Begin' is such a beautiful testimony to the importance of holding onto our faith and embracing God's peace. Go ahead and give it a listen, and enjoy the voice of Walker Burroughs, the featured artist in this song. May this song ignite your faith, that no matter how tough life gets, God’s love and grace will lead you to new beginnings.

(Related scripture: Jeremiah 29:11; Psalm 147:3; Revelation 21:4)

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...

"New Jerusalem" by whispering HOPE: When Heaven Comes Down to Heal Everything

whispering HOPE's New Jerusalem follows Revelation 21 and 22. After the final judgment has cleared the stage, God unveils a new heaven and a new earth, where the New Jerusalem descends like a bride. "Behold the New Jerusalem bright, descending robed in holy light."   "Then I saw heaven and earth made new," creation is healed, the old order gone, tears wiped away, and grief finally finished. Our hope is concrete, written down, and rooted in God's faithful reign.  The second verse is about the city's strength and welcome, with gates and foundations that echo the apostles, yet no temple at all, because God and the Lamb are the center. No sun is needed, because Christ lights up every street. The gates stay open; mercy welcomes the nations.  The bridge of the song celebrates the restored Eden: a clear river, the tree of life, healing, and servants who see God's face.  Key scriptures emphasized in the lyrics of this song are:  Revelation 21:1–2: I saw a n...

"Stand In Awe (Live)" by Perimeter Worship: Grace Upon the Cross

(by Jasper Tan) If you are looking for a very beautiful praise and worship song this month, then look no further than listening to Perimeter Worship's song "Stand In Awe." From the get-go, you'll feel the chills and the calming presence of the Holy Spirit as the opening notes are played. And the song gets right to it when the opening lines "Christ alone be lifted high, Christ alone be glorified" immediately glorify God. As Perimeter Worship shares, "'Stand in Awe' is a declaration of worship centering our hearts on Christ, reminding us of His finished work on the cross, and thanking Him for the grace He lavishly poured out for us. We worship with both humility and confidence, ascribing all majesty, power, and authority to Christ alone (Psalm 96:7–8)." The song is a through-and-through worship song that is tailor-fit to be sung at churches. It's a call to worship with humility and confidence, ascribing all majesty, power, and authority ...
