Shalah Marie lays her soul bare in 'Here I Am,' a powerful and relatable song about the brokenness that we all can face in life. Maybe you've also been there? On the floor, feeling empty and alone, wondering if there's a way out of this situation. There is a way out! In those moments, when you've got nothing else left, just raise your hands and eyes to heaven and whisper, 'OK God. Here I am.'
The chorus confirms that her whisper wasn't in vain: 'If it wasn't for Your mercy // Don't know where I would stand // Grateful Your Love came and found me // Here I am.' It is good to surrender to Him, but we also need to keep our eyes open! How often do we forget to watch and witness His hand in our trials and troubles?
'… when I feel like I am sinking // There You are // Holding my hand through it all,' Shalah sings. That's God's promise in action! Always there for us, our guide in life's storms, the unshakable rock beneath our feet.
Hit play and give 'Here I Am' by Shalah Marie a listen. May this song remind you that God's mercy and goodness is just a prayer away. You're never too far gone, never too broken, because in His grace there's always a (new) chance to say, 'Here I am.'
