'God Of My Life (Psalm 63)' by Cindy Clark: When Faith Transforms Fear into Freedom


Have you ever felt caught in the night, where fears seems to smother you and hope seems just out of reach? Cindy Clark's song, 'God Of My Life,' comes from this dark space and shows how God brings light into our darkest hours. Through her personal battle with panic attacks, Cindy experienced first hand how God delivers - an experience that that she shares through the lyrics and melodies of this heartfelt track. 

Cindy Clark - God Of My Life (Psalm 63)Right off the bat, you're met with a raw honesty and deep longing that anyone who's been in this wilderness of despair is most likely to recognize. The first line of the song, 'Oh God of my life, I'm love sick for you,' sets the tone of the song that many will recognize, our heart's deepest desire to really feel God's presence. Cindy reminds us that despite our feelings of loneliness and fear, God satisfies this craving of the heart. 

Cindy beatifully shifts our focus to look beyond the struggle, to finding peace and strength in the embrace of God, whose love is 'better than life.' She encourages us to praise Him and find joy in His protection, 'in the shadow of your wings.' 

Although 'God Of My Life' comes from a space of vulnerability and worship, it isn't just for those who've faced panic or fear; it's for all of us. It's a musical reminder that we don't have to be alone… By seeking God's love, our cries for help will be heard, and we will find true refuge in His presence. 

May Cindy's testimony through this song strengthen your faith. May you turn your heart to God, so that the red wave of Christ's blood can wash away all darkness. And most importantly, may this song encourage you to seek and praise God, the true 'God of my life,' in all seasons.

"A Love Song" by Seek and Surrender: The Three-Stranded Covenant

(By Jasper Tan) We always see people say "I love you" to someone, professing their love to that significant other. But we often see how a marriage united by love easily shreds to tatters, and we ask ourselves, "Why?" Where did it all go wrong? How did something joined together by love easily get broken and be accepted as "falling out of love"? But the biggest thought that comes to mind while listening to Seek and Surrender's latest song, "A Love Song," is: do we really understand what it feels like to love? In Seek and Surrender's song, there are countless lines in which the singer professes his love to his bride. It seeks to highlight the sincerity of his love, the magnanimity, the pureness. But in those lines, there's this line that we all should focus on —  "If Christ gave Himself for His bride, Oh, then I'll give myself for mine." Do we know how Christ gave himself for his bride (the Church)? He sacrificed himself w...

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics

John Mayer's Secret to Writing Catchy Song Lyrics by Kapa Freeman  Why are John Mayer's song lyrics so easy to remember? It comes down to human psychology. I am notoriously bad at remembering song lyrics, except for John Mayer's Songs. Other artists may write a song I remember here or there, but John Mayer does it consistently. Why? I discovered the reason when I was working full-time as a teacher. Teachers can always tell when they're losing students. When those eyes start to glaze over, when that one eyebrow raises in confusion and someone yells out... "I don't get it!"  I got those a lot when I first started teaching. Talking to other teachers, I soon discovered why. I was giving too much information at once. I would vomit these elaborate explanations, thinking that more information would help clear things up... But they just got confused. Talking to my teachers reminded me of lessons I'd learned while getting my teaching degree:  "People remem...

'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...
