"Why Can’t I Believe" by H.U.G.E.: Help Me Overcome Unbelief


H.U.G.E.'s "Why Can't I Believe" is a reflective gospel visual that explores the struggle between doubt and faith. It feels like an honest journal entry put to music. The artist knows that God stays with us to the end, and His power is unlimited. But there is a world of difference between clear promises and a shaky heart. 

H.U.G.E. - Why Can't I BelieveThe lyrics keep circling one honest question that will be all too familiar for most listeners… "why can't I believe what God says He will do?" This question turns doubt into prayer, not shame. Instead of pretending that everything's fine, the song points at some of the real culprits: negative self-talk, anxiety that tightens our chest, and this impatience inside us that wants to get answers right now. Familiar, isn't it? We understand the theory, but in real life, we have trouble putting it into practice. 

The lyrics continue about going through more than a few stumbles, and acknowledge that even when our faith feels fragile, we are being carried. The song keeps pointing us back to God's steady presence, especially when life doesn't seem to cooperate. 

So, how do we put this into practice? Speak life, reject the spiral, and ask for His help to trust again. Whenever we question our faith, it can become a new doorway. So, take a breath, open Scripture, and remember our story is never finished. Faith grows while you keep showing up. So, go ahead and press play. Let "Why Can't I Believe" coach your courage one refrain at a time.

(Related scripture: Hebrews 13:5; Mark 9:24; Philippians 4:6)

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax: Half the Weight, Double the Faith

"Man I Used To Be" by Dax is a very personal song. Dax had promised himself that he wouldn't release new music until he'd stayed sober for six months, the time he needed to get his priorities straight and clear his mind. "Man I Used To Be" is the sound of his first clean breath, life with God by his side. Dax lays it bare: "Trials and tribulations, all my past trauma," he acknowledges, along with "generational curses from daddy and mama," and the "addictions that clouded my eyes." The honesty about his past struggles makes the message of this song so relatable and powerful.  The chorus is about the moment that the script was flipped, "I'm half the man I used to be." Not a broken man, but a man who has been freed from the burdens that weren't his to carry and kept him from God. "I don't ever chase, I got God," declaring that his new identity is anchored in faith. It's a shrug and a testimo...

'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...
