"Brand New Day (20th Anniversary Edition)" by Thoughts And Notions: How Faith Rewrites Your Story


"Brand New Day (20th Anniversary Edition)" by Thoughts And Notions is a revamped song for anyone who is feeling weighed down, looking for renewed hope, or just needs a fresh start. The band reunited after years, made changes to their signature sound, and are releasing new versions of their songs. The result is a song that feels like an old friend who is reaching out in tough times and reminding us that a new morning is on the horizon no matter how dark the night was. The original version of this song was released in 2006, an uncertain time in the Philippines, and it really speaks to the heart (both then and now) with lines like "I am dreaming of a better tomorrow // Where there will be no more sorrow." Just look around! This desire is just as relevant today as it was in 2006. It is a desire that can affect our actions through prayer and how we treat others. The lyrics also share a promise and encouragement that healing is on the horizon. 

Thoughts And Notions - Brand New Day (20th Anniversary Edition)The lyrics encourage us to hand over our brokenness to God, search for meaning in God, and growing our faith fill the gaps: "For this heart has a gaping hole // And catch me when I fall // In your arms is where I lay." We may trust that God's love will lifts us up and pulls us through, day after (difficult) day. This is the gentle nudge that comes back in each verse of the song, … trust, lay your burdens down, and believe that tomorrow holds something beautiful. 

This song is a beautiful and heartfelt reminder that faith always creates new possibilities and following Jesus really does changes your life. So, go ahead and turn up the volume, and let Thoughts And Notions lead you into your own brand new day.

(Related scripture: Lamentations 3:22-23; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Jeremiah 29:11)

'Lonely Dirt Road' by Dax: A Journey to Solitude and God

Dax's 'Lonely Dirt Road' is a conversation that Dax has with himself and God. Dax shares his journey of turning mental health walks into healing solitary drives. As you listen, you can almost feel the cruise, where it's just you, your thoughts, and God.  The chorus is so relatable: 'When I need space, that's where I go, a place to escape that nobody knows.' What do you do when life's pressures stack high? Do you also have a space where you can let go? That lonely dirt road that Dax sings about symbolizes solitude, but it is also an incredible opportunity for connecting with God.  Dax's honesty is raw and relatable. 'I didn't want my family to see me cry… dealing with the pressure of trying to provide.' There are times when we all put on a smile to hide how challenging situations may be. Like his father, Dax says that he finds peace on this lonely road, where challenges become opportunities to grow. This shows the core of our faith: that...

'Jeremiah 29:11' by Sow In Peace: Connecting to God’s Plan

Mike, the artist behind Sow In Peace, brings us a powerful reminder with his latest track, 'Jeremiah 29:11.' This track has a modern CEDM vibe, blending soothing electronic beats with the timeless promise from God that we can read in Jeremiah 29:11. 'For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.' It’s an energetic melody that doesn't distract from the core message, a song that invites you to reflect on God's promise in your life, reminding you that His plans are driven by love and purpose. Mike grew up in a family of musicians, and it shouldn't come as a surprize that music has always been an important part of his life. He went on to have a successful career writing music for TV shows and movies after finishing his formal education in music. While living the fast-paced Los Angeles lifestyle, he gave his life to Christ and found a new calling—a calling to slow down and re...
