"Turn To Him" by Julia Igwe: A Heartfelt Call to Seek Jesus


“Turn To Him” by Julia Igwe is a personal reminder for anyone who is feeling weighed down by the struggles and weight that life can cause. Julia shares her story of how she was lost. She encourages us to see that true salvation isn’t found in empty promises or temporary fixes, but in Jesus. The lyrics share the pain she felt, as well as the shame and exhaustion. It’s in these moments that giving up seems so tempting. Julia doesn’t leave you there. She gently calls you to look upward, turn to Jesus, because He is the one who sees your tears and hears your cries. He wants to bring His peace into your life if you let Him.

Julia Igwe - Turn To HimJulia is convinced, “He wants to dry all of your tears,” and “He will part through the sea,” now that she too has experienced God’s loving power to rescue and restore in her own life. She encourages us to call out to Jesus in prayer, knowing He’s ready to wrap us in His love and fill our lives with true joy.

This song is a simple and yet powerful nudge to stop searching for love and happiness elsewhere. Those surrogates will not satisfy like Jesus can. Turn to our Savior! He promises to be everything we need and brings us hope and the fullness of life.

“Turn To Him” was the song Julia needed to hear when she was lost. May this help you focus on Him alone, and remember that Jesus loves you.

Skillet - Valley of Death (CCM)

Skillet has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Valley of Death. The global health crisis of the last two years has led to numerous questions regarding why bad things happen to good people. Skillet's John Cooper explains why he believes God allowed the pandemic to happen. Skillet has released their new album Dominion through Atlantic Records last Friday (Jan. 14). A discussion with 'Loudwire Nights' host Toni Gonzalez brought up the track "Valley of Death," which contains the lyrics: "Someone said this is all part of the plan / But I don't understand." Gonzalez then asked him why he thinks God would allow a pandemic. This is what Cooper said: "Well, the first answer is that we're not good people. We're all fallen and we are all in desperate need of salvation through Jesus. So, we're not actually good people, we all do bad stuff. We all cheat, we've all lied, we're all greedy and as much as the most lov...

"In the Room" by Matt Maher feat. Chris Brown: A Heartfelt Desire for Divine Presence

Matt Maher's collaboration with Chris Brown, 'In the Room,' is a soul-stirring Christian song that encapsulates the profound longing to witness transformative moments in the presence of God. The lyrics express the desire to be present when God's power touches broken hearts, ignites faith, and brings healing. The song's verses convey a yearning for those irreplaceable instances when heaven and earth intersect, leading to changed hearts and restored lives. The chorus's declaration, ' I just wanna be in the room when You move,' beautifully encapsulates the eagerness to witness God's miraculous work up close. The bridge's vivid imagery of tearing off the roof and pushing through the crowd reflects the determination to encounter God, no matter the obstacles. The repetition of the bridge emphasizes the earnest plea to witness God's breakthroughs and freedom. 'In the Room' is an invitation to be part of moments that are greater than oneself...

"Sunlight (Storge)" by Chelsea Chaisson: Reminisce the Simpler Times

(by Jasper Tan) Feel good, light-hearted, easy listening track. That's how I find Chelsea Chaisson's new single called "Sunlight (Storge)." I was kind of curious what the word "Storge" means, so I had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, "Storge is a Greek word that refers to natural, familial affection or love, particularly the bond between parents and children, as well as among family members and close friends. It is characterized by familiarity, dependence, and loyalty, often rooted in kinship bonds and shared experiences." Sounds very familiar? Of course, it should be, because as per the description, it actually describes what Christian love is. Or should I say how God loves us as His children? Chelsea was inspired to write this song by reminiscing about her childhood, marked by simpler times spent with her cousins and their grandma.  Countless times, we always heard the saying that we all should have faith like a child. The reason for that i...
