Finding Refuge in God's Embrace: "Hiding Place" by Hannah Schaefer


Hannah Schaefer's song "Hiding Place" is a song that gently reminds us that no matter how distant God may seem or how long and weary the journey with Him feels, there is always a refuge in the Lord—a sacred hiding place where our hearts can rest and find peace.

Hannah Schaefer - Hiding PlaceHannah sings about a long and tiring journey alongside God, where feet are "beat black and blue." She beautifully expresses the peace that we may all find in His unwavering love. Hannah sings of God's open arms, a safe place that He has prepared, and the grace that continually amazes her. The chorus, "I can always find my hiding place in You," emphasizes the steadfastness of God's protection, comparing it to a mountain that can't be moved. 

The beauty of this message is that His arms are also open for each of us. The only thing stopping us from finding that comfort in God is us, our pride, our misplaced idea that we don't need Him. He is there, waiting for you to accept His invitation to find your hiding place in Him—our unshakeable and loving refuge.

(Related scripture: Psalm 32:7; Psalm 46:1; Matthew 11:28)

As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable.

Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...
