"He Calls Me Friend" by Luminate House: Joy Through Christ’s Unwavering Love


"He Calls Me Friend (LIVE)" by Luminate House is a passionate song about the fact that Jesus doesn't just see us as followers; He calls us "friends" (John 15:15). Just let that sink in for a moment! What does this mean for us today? The fact that He calls us friend brings so much hope, especially if you're facing doubt or feel like the "enemy" is trying to steal your joy. The song is trying to trigger paradigm shift in your heart, "The Devil tryna steal my joy… But I have a friend in God." 

Luminate House - He Calls Me Friend (LIVE)This song celebrates the life-changing power of God's friendship with us. Lines like "He called me out with the promise of freedom" highlight His relentless pursuit of our hearts. He also sets the tone for what true friendship means… true friends don't give up! In Jesus we have a very special Friend, because "He knows my story, and He knows the end." This reassures us that no matter how daunting the circumstances may seem, God is always on time (His time), making a way for us, even when there seems to be no way forward or way out. His ways are always higher than ours. 

If you're searching for encouragement or just need a reminder of how much God loves you, may this song give you that encouragement. May it help you to feel His love in your heart, see His love in your life, and help you to see Him as the Friend that will never let you go.

(Related scripture: John 15:15; Psalm 34:10; 1 Peter 5:8-9)

"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....

"Misunderstood" by Cory Asbury: Letting the Light In Through Vulnerability

Cory Asbury's 'Misunderstood' is a poignant ballad that reaches out to those grappling with anxiety, depression, and the weight of the future. With heartfelt lyrics and a soothing melody, this song offers solace and understanding to anyone feeling overwhelmed by life's challenges. The verses weave a narrative of resilience, reminding us that our struggles do not define us. The chorus confronts the notion of brokenness, acknowledging the universal experience of hiding pain and imperfections. Asbury's empathetic voice assures that being broken is a shared reality, not a personal failure. The final chorus, like a reassuring anthem, reinforces the understanding that no one is alone in their struggles. It acknowledges the societal tendency to bury vulnerability but emphasizes the importance of acknowledging pain and seeking support.
