'If Healing is Real' by Abbie Werner: Where Music Meets Miracles


Abbie Werner's new song 'If Healing is Real' is a musical testimony of faith, struggle, and an amazing 14-year journey of healing with Jesus. Abbie's struggles started during her middle and high school years, and looking back, on her path to recovery, she walked hand in hand with Jesus. Her recovery began with a guitar lesson. 

Abbie Werner - Healing is Real'Turn your eyes upon the Person who has won / The toughest battle's done / Grab your freedom,' Abbie sings, summarizing the essence of her journey. It's a call to remember that while we are still in the middle of our battles, no matter how big or small, Jesus has already claimed victory. Abbie shares how Kelsey Sharpe (her music teacher) gave her the tools and structure to express her big feelings, prayers, and questions to Jesus through music. Music with a message of hope, encouraging you to hold onto your faith, even when everything inside you wants to let go.

Healing isn't just a possibility, Abbie's song reminds you that it is a promise that you can count on it! With lines like 'Don't give up yet, friend/I know it's hard when motivation's gone,' Abbie reaches out to others who are going through their own struggles and shows them the way to the safe harbor that we all may find in God.

Check out 'If Healing is Real.' In times of doubt, may this song lead you, and in times of joy, may it lift you. Enjoy!

'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...

"the cost (given for us)" by HOMECOMING: Feeling the Weight of Grace

HOMECOMING's "the cost (given for us)" looks at the weight of what Jesus gave up to save humanity. The backstory that HOMECOMING wrote this song after talking about how easy it is to say "Jesus died for me" without really thinking about what that means. Like, what did it actually cost Him? Their approach wasn't to create another "thank You" song, but a song that invites us to slow down and truly feel the sacrifice He made. His sacrifice wasn't just a painful moment on a cross. It was everything. He gave up heaven. He was rejected, betrayed, beaten… and He still chose the cross for us. That kind of love doesn't make sense. But it's real. The lyrics give words to the awe we feel: "You took my place // How can it be // By your grace I'm saved." And lines like "Your blood washed me clean" and "By your stripes I'm healed" remind us of the freedom and healing that He paid for. Then comes the part that ...

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common: Letting Go of People-Pleasing for Good

"Wanna Be Like You" by One Common is an interesting song that was born out of this duo's struggles with wanting to please people and the pressure they felt to perform. The song reminds us to stop chasing others for their approval and start chasing Jesus instead. "I'm so done tryna be someone else just to keep people's attention," they sing. It can be very exhausting to constantly pretend and perform. The song reminds us to keep our hearts and lives centered on Jesus—the only one who truly is worthy of being our role model. Not for applause. Not for attention. But because His way is the only one that brings real peace and fulfillment in our lives.  The need to please others and perform is probably a feeling that many of us know all too well — but it doesn't have to define us.  The lyrics of the song put the issue right there on the table: "Who am I tryna be, who am I tryna please? That's the question." And the answer? Ofcourse, Jesus i...
