Emmy Rod's 'Trust in God': Finding Faith in Uncertain Times


Emmy Rod's album 'Trust in God' is a journey of faith that you can relate to, especially if you're struggling with uncertainty. Eight beautifully written songs encourage you to place your trust in God and be assured that His promises will never change. 

Emmy Rod - Trust in God'Trust in God,' the title track, immediately sets the tone of the album. You can count on God to be there for you as you face one of life's many storms. Emmy sings, 'When the storms of life are raging // And my heart is filled with fear // I remember You are with me // Your promises are always near,' reminding us that God never let's you down. He is always there and is your refuge (if you let Him be part of your life). 

'At the Cross' takes you to the heart of Jesus' sacrifice, encouraging you to take time to reflect on His unconditional love and grace. He already paid the price for you… all you need to do is accept. 

The song 'In Moments of Despair' acknowledges that we all have our struggles, it's part of life! The key is what you do during these moments of despair! Do you go to God for support? This song points to the true source of hope, and assures you that you're never alone… because He is by your side. 

'My Anchor' is like a warm hug, again emphasizing that God is always within your reach. It's a comforting reminder that God anchors us with His peace, no matter what we're facing in life. 

The track 'Renew My Heart' is a prayer for spiritual refreshment. Emmy's plea for renewal is something we all need in our busy lives, and it reminds us to look for God's transformative love. 

'His Beacon' is about God's guiding light, a light that we shouldn't be hiding under a bushel. Emmy reminds us that the world badly needs His light, and encourages you to reflect His light for others. 

The song 'Heal Our World', so relevant in today's broken world, calls us to play our part in uniting and healing the world, and ask God to give our world the healing that it needs. 

As you listen to each of these songs, it gently ignites a fire in your heart, helping you to shift from being an observer to being part of the solution. It all starts with placing your trust in God, and then taking His lead. 

Go head and dive into Emmy Rod's 'Trust in God'. May this album remind you of God's never-failing promises.

"Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative – Ancient Wisdom, Fresh Waves

I'm sitting in traffic, Spotify on shuffle, listening to my collection of new releases. That's when the song "Guide Me (O, Thou Great Jehovah) / Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)" by Ezra Worship Initiative starts to play. The song starts with a revamp of a 280-year-old hymn "Guide Me O Thou Great Jehovah", and then beautifully transitions to the chorus of Hillsong's "Oceans (Where Feet May Fail)". This medley made my heart do a little cartwheel!  The hymn "Guide Me, O Thou Great Jehovah" (originally "Arglwydd, arwain trwy'r anialwch" in Welsh) by William Williams (a Welsh Methodist preacher) was inspired by the biblical story of the Israelites' exodus from Egypt. Williams wrote this in 1745 as a plea to God for guidance while traveling through life's wilderness. A 280-year-old plea that is still very relevant for us today.  "I am weak, but Thou art mighty // hold me with thy powerful hand," a thought that ...

'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...

"Heartbeat" by Laura Leighe - Dancing in Worship

Here's a song that's more or less been stuck in my head since I heard it. It's called 'Heartbeat' by Laura Leighe and is what Laura calls a "reggaeton-influenced Christian pop duet" that's all about surrendering to God's rhythm and dancing in worship, no matter what life throws your way.  The lyrics remind me of two scriptures: "Praise him with timbrel and dancing, praise him with the strings and pipe."  - Psalm 150:4 (NIV) and "Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the Lord with all his might."  - 2 Samuel 6:14 (NIV). Maybe I'm a bit prejudiced because the song reminds us of our own thoughts when we founded "Christian Dance" years ago and picked a name. Focusing on music that allows us to feel joy and causes us (our hearts) to dance for God, a pure form of worship that we know is pleasing to God. The lyrics are about surrendering our control and trusting in God's plan. Laura sings, "I bet you f...
