'Grace' by Raymond Okeke-Macauley: Embracing Imperfection


It can be so easy to overcomplicate things, especially when see ourselves, stumbling and imperfect. Raymond Okeke-Macauley's song, “Grace,” shares an important message, 'All that I need is just grace!'

Raymond Okeke-Macauley - GraceRaymond reminds us that God’s love is all-encompassing and always there to all who have let Him be part of their lives. There is absolutely nothing that is too big or to shameful that it can't be covered by His grace. So don't try to overcomplicate things!

Raymond is from Sierra Leone and is a man of many musical talents. He's classically trained but boldly ventures into R&B, Afrobeat, Jazz, and other genres. Raymond uses this blend of styles to bring a fresh and exciting take on Christian music, one that will open more hearts to hear God's Word.

The song “Grace” itself begins with a humble admission of our flawed nature. We're reminded that nobody is perfect. We all will fall short and make mistakes from time to time, and may even try to do everything on our own. Thankfully God will step in (if you let Him), lighting up your path and showing you that His grace is truly all we need. This is such a powerful message! We don’t have to be perfect, and as long as we look to God to mold and lead us, we can be confident that His grace covers us completely.

Take a moment to listen to 'Grace'. It's a beautiful reminder that God's grace is more than enough.

(Related scripture: Ephesians 2:8-9; 2 Corinthians 12:9; Titus 3:5)

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

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...
