'Always Near' by Olly Kiff: Finding Strength Because God is Near


'Always Near' by Olly Kiff helps you remember that God is always close by. Inspired by Isaiah 55 and co-written with a friend, this song is about moments when life feels overwhelming and you are looking for hope. Kiff cuts right through the noise of everyday life to remind you that God is so close that He can hear your whispered prayers. He gives you His strength when you're weak. In times of darkness, His Word lights up your path and shows you the way.

Olly Kiff - Always NearThere is so much comfort to be found in this song. The lyrics speak of more than 'just' God being nearby, but also about feeling love through every step in your life. Just let that sink in for a moment! Think of the peace that this brings to followers of Christ!

Kiff's song carries you from uncertainty to confidence. It's like watching the sun break through storm clouds, lighting your way forward. That is more than trying to get through whatever comes on your path, it's about finding life, joy, and peace in His presence.

This song isn't just music; it's a companion for your faith journey. Let it be your go-to when you need a reminder of God's nearness. Press play, close your eyes, and let Kiff's honest lyrics draw you closer to the One who's always near.

"Dancing On Water" by Mary Oz: When grief has no power over Hope

(by Jasper Tan) I have always been a huge admirer of Mary Oz's music. Since the moment I discovered her songs, without fail, I've always made it a point to add them to my playlists. If there was one CCM artist from the Philippines who deserves to be heard on a global scale, then my vote belongs to Mary.  Her latest single, "Dancing On Water" (which is a part of her forthcoming album), is a pure acoustic folk/rock song that talks about breakthroughs from grief. As Mary shares, "Grief can swallow you whole, but it's not a life sentence. The morning will come, and with it, Joy." This is a very empowering statement that seeks to inspire her listeners to take courage, rejoice, leave the sadness behind, and just conquer their fears.  What I love about Mary's songwriting is her deep metaphorical lyricism that makes her songs stand out among the clutter of songs in this age of digital music. You'll definitely know that her songs are very well thought of...

"Meet Me in the Valley" by Tasha Layton: God in the Low Places

We've all experienced times in our lives when everything feels impossible, and it feels like God is nowhere near. Tasha Layton sings about that very struggle in her song, "Meet Me in the Valley." Tasha calls out those painful moments and places them in the context of promises that you can read in Psalm 23. God promises that goodness and mercy will follow us, even through life's darkest seasons.  Tasha shared the main takeaway of this song on her Instagram account: "You are not forgotten. You are not alone. God meets you right where you are."   We often aren't able to recognize His grace until we're desperately needing it, and honestly, we often don't appreciate what we have (and what He has given us) until everything falls apart. But instead of dwelling in despair, Tasha reminds us to look upwards, and ask for His help: "In the middle of the war // Tell me that I'll make it // When I'm not sure // You'll be faithful." We...
