Kali Joy - Sand (CCM)

Kali Joy has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Sand.

Kali shares: "I wrote Sand last summer after I was in a worship service where they read several verses from Psalm 139. The verses immediately captured my imagination in a way that they never had before. The passage says that God's thoughts, if we were to count them, outnumber the grains of sand. That is insane to me! That God thinks of you and of me more than we can even comprehend. He knew us before we were even born, because he created us. And he also believes in us enough that he's willing to patiently walk with us as we become all that he created us to be.

I was raised in the church, but I think as is the case with many people who are raised in the church it is much easier to know about God instead of actually knowing him personally. I have been on a journey of allowing God's presence and love to flood into my life. His amazing love is becoming more and more real to me the more that I get to know him, and it's truly delivering me from every fear and anxiety, from condemnation and guilt, and from the grips of shame and emptiness. My prayer is that God would breathe his presence into lives through this song to many many more who long to not just know about God, but really know him. Jesus came that we may have life and have it abundantly!"

Kali Joy - Sand
Lyrics

Were I to count your thoughts for me
They’d outnumber every grain of sand
Were I to count your thoughts for me
They’d outnumber every grain of sand in the sea 

Your love is like an ocean 
Sweeping my fears away
And your love is how I know I’ll make it to the other side of
This raging storm into wide open places of your love

From dust you brought me into life
Made me in your very likeness
You raised my soul up from the grave
Savior healer everything I want and need

Oh your love is like a river 
washing these sins away
And your love is how I know I’m forgiven
Of my past completely new and unashamed because of love

May I not just know about you
But really know you
May I not just know about you
I was made to know you

May I not just know about you
But really know you
Yeah may I not just know about you
I was made to know you

May I not just know about you
But really know you
Yeah may I not just know about you

I was made to know you

Cuz your love is like a flood that’s filling 
this desert soul 
And your love is living water that will 
satisfy this emptiness 
Your love will last for all of time

Were I to count your thoughts for me

They’d outnumber every grain of sand

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. 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. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. 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...

"Oceans (Hillsong Cover)" by Tiffany Ford - Stepping into the Unknown with Faith

Life can at times feel like a stormy sea! Do you recognize that feeling? Tiffany Ford does, and Oceans by Hillsong is one of her 'go-to' songs for those rough times in life. She released a beautiful cover of Oceans, and shared how faith became her anchor when her life seemed so overwhelming. "Seemed" is the key word here, because in her moments of doubt and fear she discovered that God was meeting her exactly where she stood — by her side as she stood on shaky ground or in deep waters.  Oceans is a favorite for many readers, a song that describes the tension we feel between trust and uncertainty: "You call me out upon the waters / The great unknown where feet may fail." It's a beautiful invitation to step out of your comfort zone, even when it feels quite risky. With this cover, Tiffany is reminding us (and herself) that He is there when we get of our comfort zone. We can count on Him being there to guide us —  "Your sovereign hand will be my guide...
