"Higher" by Jensen & Company: A Call to Lift Others Through Love


What does it really mean to lift someone up? "Higher (feat. Heidi Jensen North)" by Jensen & Company gives a clear answer to that question. The inspiration for this song comes from a young man (shown in the video) who has a beautiful ministry of prayer. He spends his free time seeking out people who are in need. He gives them a flower, a small gift, prayers, a smile, or even just an ear to listen. He looks beyond his disabilities and sees opportunities to share the love of God. 

Jensen & Company - Higher (feat. Heidi Jensen North)The lyrics capture this so beautifully! When hope feels like "some kind of shadow" and those challenges are lurking ahead, the message reminds us, "Don't let go, hold on in prayer." God is there to support us through every high and low… to the deepest moments of despair. 

What really grabs me is the call to action. "If you see a friend standing in the road, don't walk by, take his hand so he's not alone." We are vessels of God's love when we extend His care to others. A smile, walking up to someone who is lost, offering help, showing some compasion when life took an unexpected twist. Open your heart, and God will let you know what you can do. 

Heidi sings: "He'll take us higher, higher, higher, because He's faithful and always there." It's also a reminder that looking upward not only changes our perspective, but it also expands our ability to serve. There's always somebody who has a greater need than yourself…. If we could all only remember that! 

May this song help you to recognize your unique potential to share God's ever-present love.

"Is Anybody There? (Psalm 27)" by Stephen M. Miller: Holding On to Grace at Heaven’s Door

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.

Imagine the skies tearing open with a thunderous cry. Difficult to imagine? Well, based on Revelation 19 and Daniel 7, we believe that day will come! When the skies tear open, it announces the moment we all have been waiting for.  Whispering HOPE captures this moment in "Rider of Glory," a track that talks about Christ's return as the conquering King.
