Byrne Elliott's 'Ready to Begin': Tribute to a Journey of Faith and Strength


Byrne Elliott’s song 'Ready to Begin' is a tribute his mother. A woman who lived a life of faith, love, and resilience. A life that demonstrated that you can overcome all of life's hardships through unwavering faith and a heart filled with love.

Byrne Elliott - Ready to BeginHer life wasn't easy. She faced tremendous challenges raising her children, including the heartbreak of losing several of them. Despite all the pain and sorrow she faced, nothing could break her faith or harden her heart.

It's quite easy to relate to this song. Many listeners / readers will have faced times of pain and sorrow of their own or stood close to someone as they went through this. Elliot sings in such a manner that you can almost feel the tears, hopes, and the fierce determination captured in this song.

The lyrics talk about the strength that we all can find in God's promises. Strength that she held on to as the end of her life drew near, as she went from earthly pain to eternal peace. An example that shares a message of comfort and hope. This promise of a better tomorrow wrapped in God's love is so powerful and encouraging.

'Ready to Begin' is such a beautiful testimony to the importance of holding onto our faith and embracing God's peace.

May this song ignite your faith, that no matter how tough life gets, God’s love and grace will lead you to new beginnings.

"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....
