"Back to Life" by Taylor Charmayne – Finding Strength When You’re Running Empty


"Back to Life" by Taylor Charmayne is a song of strength, redemption, and faithfulness. Taylor Charmayne had what she calls a "Damascus moment", a moment where she realized that her music wasn't in line with God's plan for her life. She was a rising star in secular pop at that time, and she turned away from the fame and the record deals to give her life back to Christ.

Taylor Charmayne - Back to LifeThe lyrics describe the change, "I've been feeling like I'm on E," she sings, describing her struggle. But she knew He was with her, even when she couldn't see His hand. “What’s Goliath to a stone when you with me?”

The chorus is full of thankfulness and reminds us that God is always there: “You always show up on time… every time I lost my fight, you brought me right back to life.” 

This song isn't about being perfect; it's all about trust. It's about healing and knowing that God has prepared a way, regardless of how tough things may seem. If you feel like you're on "E" and need a spiritual boost to keep going, may this song get you on your way and remind you of the power of faith. Enjoy!

"Oceans (Hillsong Cover)" by Tiffany Ford - Stepping into the Unknown with Faith

Life can at times feel like a stormy sea! Do you recognize that feeling? Tiffany Ford does, and Oceans by Hillsong is one of her 'go-to' songs for those rough times in life. She released a beautiful cover of Oceans, and shared how faith became her anchor when her life seemed so overwhelming. "Seemed" is the key word here, because in her moments of doubt and fear she discovered that God was meeting her exactly where she stood — by her side as she stood on shaky ground or in deep waters.  Oceans is a favorite for many readers, a song that describes the tension we feel between trust and uncertainty: "You call me out upon the waters / The great unknown where feet may fail." It's a beautiful invitation to step out of your comfort zone, even when it feels quite risky. With this cover, Tiffany is reminding us (and herself) that He is there when we get of our comfort zone.
