"Wait" by Reflect Church: Finding Worship in Patience


"Wait" by Reflect Church is about coming back to the absolute basics of waiting on God and how challenging that can be, possibly even challenging our faith. The song invites us to slow down and trust in God's timing and ask God to help push us past the awkwardness, impatience, and distraction that we feel when we are still. 

Reflect Church - WaitSomething very interesting happens in the waiting… You begin to become more and more aware of God's presence and greatness. This stage is where faith grows, because you get a better sense of how much God really loves you, how much He's for you, and what He is already doing in your life. There are blessings in the waiting, although we may not always see it that way. 

The repetitive assurance in the lyrics, "We're going to wait on you," is all about creating a genuine commitment in our hearts and minds, a commitment that helps to cut through the noise of everyday distractions. The verses honor titles like Creator, Forgiver, Redeemer, and Healer, reminding us of God's multifaceted love and that there is never a reason to hold back our praises. 

"We're not going to wait for the rocks to cry // Our lips will fill with praise // We're not going to wait till the end of time // You're worthy of it all // We're not going to hide our hearts from you // We're holding nothing back // We're not going to miss a moment's praise // You're worthy of it all." God is truly worthy of all our adoration. 

The key message of this song is that it's in the stillness that we really may discover God's greatness and love, and this discovery can change our mindset from expectation to awe-filled worship. May this song encourage you to embrace the stillness and rediscover His greatness and love for you.

Stephen M. Miller's "Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" comes in the quiet aftermath of the Christmas celebrations, when reflection can feel like isolation. Stephen's song isn't about polishing away his mistakes, nor does it encourage you to do so with your mistakes. Stephen shares his painful experience, "I never saw it coming Lord // It felt right but it was wrong // Family and friends have left me // But I still have you and a song."   Stephen owns the fallout of his actions, taking accountability without despair. "I said it and I did it, Lord // Broke more hearts than I'll ever know // I can't fix this, though I've tried // Don't be angry, and please don't go." His song is a prayer for God's presence and guidance. "Hear me when I call you, Lord // Don't turn your face away // Don't give up on me like others have // Come help me through this day." Stephen describes a fear that we too experience when we ...

"Love Still Bids You Welcome" by Jeremy David: Finding Restoration Thru Repentance by God’s Grace

(by Jasper Tan) Jeremy David's "Love Still Bids You Welcome" is a moving Christian Contemporary song that testifies to one's repentance, that God accepts with grace, and His assurance of salvation. It's a catchy acoustic rock track that acts as Jeremy's personal prayer, as he confesses the status of his relationship with God, where he feels that God is slowly drifting away from him. And while this experience brought him regret, it also helped him realize that God's love remains constant and it is never reluctant. The core message of the song reminds us that there will always be hope in God, even when we sometimes feel unworthy of his love. God has promised that He will not cast us out, and that He will always be ready to accept us back in his arms and redeem us from the darkness that we're in. All it takes is that we learn to humble ourselves and ask Him for forgiveness. In parallel, we strive hard to turn our lives around and begin a more spiritually...
