“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble." Psalm 46:1
One of the biggest acts in Christian music, For King + Country, is out with another sure-to-be hit song, “What are We Waiting For?”
Time is the most precious commodity that any of us possess. It’s constantly fleeting. Every hour, minute and second that passes means we have less of it. Unlike money or other material possessions, we can never get it back. Once it’s gone, it’s lost forever, never to be recovered or returned.
The Grammy-winning brother duo, For King + Country, points out just how valuable and significant time is in their newest song, “What are We Waiting For?” It’s an item that must not be spent foolishly, but rather wisely and in a way that benefits everyone.
The song’s opening verse mentions how it’s impossible to accomplish anything of value without first putting in the time and effort. The lyrics then push listeners to quit procrastinating and get to work immediately.
The song’s chorus then asks several very important questions.
“What are we praying for?
What are we saving for?
What if we could be the light that no one could ignore?
What are we waiting for?”
Yes, prayer and communicating with God are vital and necessary for any follower. But what if our actions are the answer to prayer? What if, instead of constantly asking God to change someone’s heart and life, we’re the person that has been sent to show them the love of Christ?
As Christians, we are called to minister to the world's lost and hurting. Time is limited and is something that will never be regained. Knowing how little time we have on this earth, what are we waiting for to help someone else, to show kindness, to be a Christ-like example to someone?
James 4:14 “When you are not certain what will take place tomorrow. What is your life? It is a mist, which is seen for a little time and then is gone.”
Nothing in this life is worth the cost of losing Jesus. Let that thought sit with you for a moment as you saturate your heart in God’s goodness as you listen to ‘The Narrow Way’ by Steffany Gretzinger’s worship music video.
I don’t know what your circumstances are. Maybe your spouse has been drinking again. Perhaps you feel the sting of loneliness after shutting the door to toxic family members. Or perhaps, the depression is so dark that you can’t find your way out of it as tears stream down your face.
Everyone’s struggles and pain are unique. A deeper struggle in the life of every Christ follower comes when we ask the next question: Where is God in my pain and suffering? I’m no expert in suffering, but the worst pain is when we are in the middle of a storm, and God feels so distant. Stephanie Gretzinger’s worship song will anchor your soul to his. Let her words move you into the heart of Jesus as you sing, “Lead me, Lord, lead me. Keep me, oh, keep me from wandering. Help me, Lord, help me. Teach me, oh, teach me your suffering.”
Her worship song reminds us nothing in this life is worth the cost of losing Christ. He is our treasure and our prize in the midst of joy, suffering, pain, and heartache. Even if we could trade the pain for peace, it would be nothing without Jesus at the center.
The beauty of our lives is when we stay on the narrow path and keep our eyes on Jesus. There we will find Christ. We will also find joy in the mist pain, strength when we are weak, and hope when all seems lost. Steffany’s worship song reminds us not to stop seeking God. He is there.
May this beautiful and soul-stirring song be a balm for your wounds and a source of solace with Christ at the center.
“The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit,” Psalms 34:18.
Shane & Shane’s acoustic performance of their song, “You’ve Already Won,” delivers a reassuring message for believers and motivation for those who aren’t!
Without a lot of flash and fluff, Shane & Shane use their two powerful voices and one acoustic guitar to remind the faithful that we need not worry about the future or the troubles ahead because Jesus has got us. He’s with his followers each step of the way!
I'm fighting a battle
You've already won
No matter what comes my way
I will overcome
Shane & Shane aren’t brothers, but they almost look like they could be with their similar personal styles and builds. They are, however, brothers in Christ. They met in the late 1990’s while attending Texas A&M University.
Both Shanes were making music at the time. In 1997, Shane Barnard released an album with another Texas A&M student, Caleb Carruth. It was titled Salvation Still Remains. And, Shane Everett was performing in area bars. The two met shortly after Shane E. accepted Christ and began attending Shane B.’s Christian fellowship group on the Texas A&M campus.
Here, singer and guitarist Shane Bernard is on the left, and Shane Everett stands on the right. The Shanes write music, perform concerts, and train worship leaders. The two founded The Worship Initiative in 2015. Based in Dallas, Texas, it is a thriving online resource and community for worship leaders and churches.
These two talents have a passion for delivering “artistically compelling and scripturally sound” music to listeners—both believers and searchers. Isn’t it amazing how God works His plans!
He brought together a couple of gifted singers on a giant college campus (there were nearly 57,000 undergraduate students in the Fall of 2021), and he even made sure the two artists could come up with a catchy name for their contemporary Christian music duo!
“The fear of the Lord leads to life; then one rests content, untouched by trouble.” Proverbs 19:23
One young man exhibited great strength, character and talent during a performance of a Josh Groban hit at a memorial service for his mother.
Losing a loved one is never easy, especially when that person is a parent. Parents play an essential role in the lives of their children. Not only do they give birth to them, but they mold, shape and teach their children. Those memories – the good and the bad – will impact that child’s life forever. One young man showed how much his mother touched his life.
In a video posted to YouTube, Jonah Manley, a blind 15-year-old, stands confidently at the microphone, speaking about his late mother. Jonah goes through a laundry list of reasons why he loved his mother, Nicole Davidson-Manley.
Jonah gives one heartfelt and touching reason after another about why he loved and adored his mother. As he shares his reasons with the audience, Jonah does so with great wit, humor and love. He often has the crowd roiling in laughter as he mentions several memories of his and his mother’s time together.
Near the end of the clip, Jonah’s father steps up to the microphone and mentions that one of Jonah and Nicole’s favorite songs was the Josh Groban classic “You Raise Me Up.” After this announcement, Jonah grabs a seat at the piano.
Jonah’s performance, much like his prior speech, is moving and beautiful. It’s clear that the lyrics hold a special place in his heart. Somehow, he’s strong enough to keep it together throughout the performance.
The room erupts in a much-deserved round of applause at the conclusion of Jonah’s stirring performance in his mother’s memory.
At the end of the YouTube clip, a soundbite plays in which Nicole, who knew her time was coming to an end, asked for the song to be played at her memorial service.
Proverbs 1:8-9 “My son, listen to your father’s instruction, and don’t forsake your mother’s teaching: for they will be a garland to grace your head, and chains around your neck.”
If you need encouragement about the forgiveness of Jesus today, check out this video. Stephen Stanley - Where I’ve Been.
Stephen is seated in a dark room with his guitar singing amazing vocals. He is tenderly sharing how he has been here before under his own sinful struggles. His lyrics are very powerful and raw. He talks of the desire to get somewhere new where the past won’t find him.
His lyrics remind us that he is not going to be who he was and that his future is brighter and better because of Jesus. His melodies and the musicality build as the listener’s heart is captivated with the story that all believers can relate to in this life.
We all were covered and defined by our past sins, we have all sinned and fallen short of God’s glory, but Jesus brings freedom. Christ has come to set us free, and we do not have to live out of our past behaviors by the strength of the Holy Spirit.
This is more than a song; this is a passionate heart cry for change that only God can do in our lives. Stephen beautifully sings this message and shares it for the world to hear that this is his testimony.
This is also the testimony that Jesus offers to all who place their faith in Him. Where I’ve Been is an inspiring message of hope.
The chorus sings:
“Help me put out all the fire, gotta break the mold I’m in.
Help me find a little freedom, ‘cause where I’m going ain't where I’ve been.
There’s gotta be a silver lining, God I need this road to bend
Don’t let my feet fail me, cause where I’m going ain't where I’ve been.”
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come: The old has gone, the new is here!” 2 Corinthians 5:17
