'Living Sacrifice' by Jeremy Bilson: A Melodic Offering of Our Soul


'Living Sacrifice' by Jeremy Bilson is a song with a very deep message. When you really listen to the lyrics and start reflecting on them, this really gets you thinking about the meaning of sacrifice, and how this applies to us. It starts off with encouraging us to lay down every fear and every past failure at the foot of the cross. That's the first invitation Jeremy extends in these lyrics. Sure, this song is great to sing along to, and it encourages living out the lyrics on a Monday morning or in the quiet of a Thursday night, laying everything down for the One who gave is all for us. 

Jeremy Bilson - Living SacrificeThe lyrics draw you into a conversation with God, with a promise to live your life as a tribute to His grace. To sing about becoming part of His family, embracing the freedom that only He can provide, and letting His truth change you. This song celebrates that your story is rewritten in God (or will be rewritten by God if you choose to accept Him into your life). 

So, sing it out, 'Jesus take my life as a living sacrifice,' and let this be more than just words. Let this be a daily decision, and your heartfelt declaration. May you sing your heart out, not just on your own, but as a family of brothers and sisters in Christ, forever changed by His love.

(Related scripture: Matthew 16:24-25; Romans 12:1; Galatians 2:20)

'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...
