"In Your Presence" by Sandra Lamb: Peace Found In A Sacred Space


Sandra Lamb released a beautiful song called "In Your Presence." The lyrics are about finding peace and joy in God's presence, and here comes the challenging part… no matter what happens. In this song, Sandra creates a beautiful atmosphere of worship and intimacy. She sings, "In Your presence I find peace // Through the stormy days // I feel Your warm embrace," repeating Isaiah 26:3. This is one of the most famous and most loved verses in all of Isaiah, and with good reason. 

Sandra Lamb - In Your PresenceIsaiah says to those in the present (that's you and me) that "perfect peace" is possible here and now. The Lord provides this to those whose minds are focused on the Lord through trusting in Him. The song also reminds us that perfect peace is not a state without any anxiety at all, or one where life is always easy and perfect. Sandra sings about an internal peace, a feeling of confident contentment that is completely independent of circumstances. It is a mind that is focused on trusting the Lord to provide all that is needed in the present, the future, and for our salvation. 

"In Your presence I find peace // Through the happy days // I feel Your joy in praise," highlighting that this peace and joy comes from having a relationship with Him. This is a relationship that we need to cling to: "When I think of Your love // And I think of Your grace // I'm holding on to You." 

There is a beautiful pledge in this song, one that hopefully will also be yours to repeat: "Whenever You call // I will answer You // Speak to my heart // And I will hear Your voice." May the message of this song and the essence of Isaiah 26:3 help you to seek and cherish God's presence in every part of your daily life.

(Related scripture: Isaiah 26:3; Psalm 16:11; 1 Samuel 3:9)

'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...
