Zac Adams' "Joy In The Morning" - A Song of Hope and Resilience


Zac Adams released a beautiful cover of "Joy In The Morning". A song that has been incredibly meaningful to Zac and his team. In case you're not so familiar with the song, it's a reminder that even in life's darkest moments of our lives, keep your faith and trust that God will bring joy in the morning. It's a call to keep faith and trust that He is working for our good, even when we don't see it or understand how things will eventually work out for us. 

Zac Adams - Joy In The MorningOne of the reasons why Zac and the team connected with the song is the timing, it "popped-up" right when some of the team were facing personal and spiritual challenges. By performing "Joy in the Morning", the song also helped them get through their challenges, brought healing and a renewed sense of purpose and peace. They hope that this song will bring you that same sense of purpose and draw you closer to God. 

It's lyrics like "If it doesn't make sense right now, it will when it's over," that make the song so relatable. And still, we have a choice… hold onto your faith, accept that God's grace is always present, and that it will bring joy and restoration each morning. 

Zac shared that while they were recording the song, they noticed how singing it together brought such a lightness and energy to the team. It felt as if they were experiencing the joy that this song talks about in real-time! 

That is also what the team wishes for you: that this song will encourage you to hold on and grow your faith, know that God is truly with you, offering His guidance together with His promise that it will bring you joy and restoration in the morning. He's already standing at your door, ready to embrace and bless you… Will you let Him in?

(Related scripture: Psalm 30:5; Romans 8:28; Lamentations 3:22-23)

"You Are Holy" by Spirit Worship: Honest Worship When Hope Runs Thin

Honest worship starts exactly where your pain is. Years of loss pushed the songwriter behind “You Are Holy” into a wilderness. Loved ones died, jobs and homes disappeared, health and finances faltered, and a church plant that failed. Most worship songs felt dishonest to him during that season, so the Psalms became his lifeline. “You Are Holy” sits down beside you and tells the truth. “It’s hard to be patient with nothing but time.” “It’s hard to be hopeful when everything dies.” Have you ever whispered something like that? That’s okay, it’s what we do next that makes a difference! “Yet though I am suffering, I’ll trust in Your name.” David faced that same kind of challenge in Psalm 13. He opens with “How long, O LORD?” and lands here: “But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.” His circumstances barely moved between the first verse and verse five, but his gaze did. You can do the same today. Be honest with God. Tell Him exactly how heavy e...

"My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)" by Avery Stafford: One Heart at Peace Can Change the Room

Peace begins in a willing heart. When did you last open your own time capsule? Avery Stafford found a time capsule somewhere in his mind and opens it in his song “My Love of Christmas (Peace Starts in Me)”. His time capsule contained a Folgers can filled with buttons and thread, a crystal globe, a denim patch, and the scent of Avon cologne. Seemingly ordinary treasures, but each one carries a Christmas that he’s never stopped loving. Avery blends gospel warmth with soulful pop to speak to the child in all of us, the child who still believes that Love leads the way. In the bridge, he wishes that child well, “forever dancing under the starlight with stories yet to tell.” The song also reminds us that memories alone cannot fix a restless / broken world, and he knows it: “We long for happily ever afters, but none of us really knows.” So where does peace begin? Not in a headline, a treaty, the outcome of the midterms, or a December calendar. Paul gives us an answer in Colossians 3:15: “And...

"Digging Ditches" Brandon Drit: Preparing for Water You Can’t See

Obedience comes first. The rain comes later. Brandon Drit knows what dry seasons can feel like. His song, “Digging Ditches”, opens on a desert road, with strength fading and a question that probably sounds a lot like yours: “How much longer will this last?” The message of the song grew out of 2 Kings 3:16, and it also marks his first professionally edited and mastered release, a ditch of its own, dug in faith. Picture the following scene. Three armies are stranded in the wilderness with nothing to drink. Then God sends Elisha with a strange order: dig trenches in the dry valley. The promise that follows sounds impossible: “You shall not see wind or rain, but that streambed shall be filled with water, so that you shall drink” (2 Kings 3:17). Digging in a drought will seem foolish to some. Who on earth shovels dirt for rain that hasn’t shown up? Only the people who trust the One who promised it. We’ve seen similar promises happen before (e.g., Noah), and in 2 Kings 3 we see it happenin...
