"Jesus Christ" by Robin Vane: From Shame to Mercy, One Surrender at a Time


Robin Vane's "Jesus Christ" is a beautiful EDM track with a powerful message. A message, or better said, a testimony, that you'd expect to hear across a coffee table, or during an informal church gathering. It's raw, honest, and quietly brave. The song starts by looking back to a younger self, when he "had no hope" and "stopped believing," stuck in a season where it was "dark," lonely, and defeating. In other words, it names the kind of despair many people hide, even today, including our younger generations. 

Robin Vane - Jesus ChristRobin continues to sing about when the turning point hit: Jesus "knocked on the door," and how he opened up to "love in the flesh." He also sings about what happened when Grace found him before he was able to clean himself up… Robin shares, "I surrendered and fell to my knees," and "I was weeping for the first time." That moment became a line in the sand for Robin: "I will never be the same." What happened to Robin can, in one way or another, also happen to you. You don't need to first "clean yourself up" before Grace can come knocking at your door! We have a magnificent God whose Grace takes you as you are and works to change your heart and life (if you let Him). 

Instead of attempting self-reliance, we may rely on Him: "I surrender all… hold on tight… to Jesus Christ." After more than shame, storms, and "burned… bridges," it is His mercy that always pulls you through. Robin reminds us that Jesus is "always there," nearer than doubt, and breathing new life into your tired soul. 

So, go ahead and take the next step. Listen closely to the lyrics and the message behind Robin's words. May this song spark your own prayer: "Search me, Lord… Take my heart."

(Related scripture: Psalm 34:18; Matthew 11:28; Psalm 51:10)

"Thankful" by John Long: Gratitude in Every Season

"Thankful" is a song that John Long wrote while looking back on a period where he spent years leading worship in a move of God that changed his life. John writes: "I saw miracles, restoration, and hearts returning to Jesus. That season also ended painfully for me, and I had to learn how to stay tender and keep worship centered on Him when the noise faded."   This song isn't about dwelling on our feelings of loss. It's about choosing gratitude, remembering what God has done, and looking forward to returning to Him with gratefulness. It's about opening our eyes to see that He is shining in our lives and always there to light up the way forward, even in the darkest times. Recognize and acknowledge His hand with gratitude.  "Thankful" invites us to start by placing our trust and focus on Jesus. It encourages us to look forward to the simplicity of just being with Him, instead of allowing ourselves to get lost in the noise of fleeting moments and ot...
