"A Place Prepared" by Madison Marlyn: When you dream of Heaven as your eternal destination


How often do we dream of Heaven? That eternal destination where everything is perfect and filled with tranquil peace? Madison Marlyn's latest single, "A Place Prepared," evokes that perfect feeling of heavenly bliss. Madison is able to encapsulate it all through the words that she sings in this song. The song is beautifully crafted, where the melody empowers the lyrics of the song, magnificently bonded together to tug at our heartstrings and stir our souls. There are no pretensions and grandstanding. Madison just straightforwardly delivers her image of the home that she long dreamed of resting in. The music beautifully brings to life the imagery she describes of what Heaven would look like. And this isn't something that she ordinarily dreams of, but rather this is an image that is deeply inspired by her Faith and in believing what God has promised us… Eternal Life.

Madison Marlyn - A Place PreparedMadison was inspired by the fleeting colors of dusk, as she let the song capture a sense of longing and waiting during our pilgrimage in life. Holding firm with the truth of Christ's promise to return after preparing a place for us, Madison hopes that this song of hers would offer encouragement and edification. As she ends the song with these lines, "When I'm deep in the valley, I hold onto what's true, He who's moving me homeward, prepares a place for me and He's coming soon," it wonderfully shows Madison's firm faith in God's promise. 

It would be such a beautiful thing if we all shared the same solid faith as Madison. And if we are yet to be in the same state, may the song inspire us to start seeking God more and improve our relationship with him. Because it is only in him we shall find a blissful Eternal Life.

"Your Love" by Kevin Winebarger - When Mercy Becomes Your Identity

Kevin Winebarger teamed up with Joshua Frerichs and Benji Cowart to create this beautiful song. "Your Love" tackles that discouraging voice we all hear from time to time, the one that whispers that we're not enough and that we are defined by our past. "Once a liar, always a liar," and all kinds of variations along this same line of thought. This song isn't about wallowing in shame. "Your Love" is a celebration of the grace that changes everything.  The opening lines hit hard: "I could believe that I'm not enough // It's clear to see I don't measure up." Yep, we've all been there! But this isn't how God want us to be defined… He loved us first! "It's just what You've done // Because of Your love." That's the heart of everything.  Kevin places the change the God brings into perspective, "I could believe that my mistakes // Will follow me down into the grave // But I'm not who I was....

"Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller: A Tender Tribute to a Loyal Friend

Beneath this gentle Americana-style song, "Tucker's Song" by Stephen M. Miller, is the heartbreak of a seven-year-old boy. The day his grandson had to say goodbye to his dog, Tucker, he asked Stephen, "Will you write a song for Tucker? Can we pretend he's still around?" How can you not say "Yes" to such a request?  This song offers comfort by simply being honest. Instead of dramatizing the grief, the message sits with it and invites the listener to reflect as well. It's lines like "Sing the song to Tucker, sing to all dogs gone away" that remind us that precious memories endure. Have you ever asked yourself how to comfort a grieving child? I know that these situations often remind me that we're all searching for hope after more than one loss! On top of that, how can you extend that hope to a grieving child? Even in situations like the loss of a dear four-legged pet, there is a message of faith to be found: "Sing to God, the...
