'I Remember' by Hayden Snook: A Song for Trusting God's Path


Hayden Snook's song, 'I Remember,' is a trip to the past, to times where you imagined what your future would be like. Hayden recalls a cold December eve, when he was reflecting on how his life turned out compared to his childhood dreams. He once dreamed of becoming a MLB baseball player, a lawyer, a doctor, and even president, but life took him in a different direction. 

Hayden Snook - I RememberHe recalls opening his Bible and reading that our lives run on God's timing, not ours. Hayden realized that the only final destination that he needed to focus on was Heaven, his true home. 

Hayden recalls that he hopped in the shower, and the words, 'This Life Is Harder Now Than I Remember' came to mind. This was the start of the song 'I Remember'. 

'I Remember' is the song for everyone who once thought that life would be much easier than it really is today. It's a song of hope that God has your back even when life takes a different turn. His arms are your true safe haven. Listening to this song may remind you of the power and comfort that God's promises can bring. 

So, go ahead and listen to Hayden Snook's 'I Remember.' May it remind you of God's love and that He has a plan for you, no matter how challenging things may seem… He is in control.

"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....

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

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.'

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.
