"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.

(Related scripture: John 14:3; Revelation 22:20; 1 Corinthians 15:55)

Josephine Grace - Higher Than the Heavens (CCM)

Josephine Grace has released a Christian Contemporary Music (CCM) track called Higher Than the Heavens. Josephine shared her story behind this song:  Some songs come quickly, some come slowly. This one was definitely the latter! It was way back in 2011 when I made a home demo of the first version of this song - it was moodier with completely different chords, melody and lyrics - and then it sat on the shelf (or more literally, on an external hard drive full of archived files) until the back end of last year. I’ve done some studying online with Hillsong College this past year and a half and at some point I’d explored what being wholehearted towards God means. Bits of the old song (it was called ‘I Will’ at that point), written quite directly from Psalm 108, started coming back to me beginning with Psalm 108:1 (NIV) “My heart, O God, is steadfast”.  I followed the melody in my mind to the chorus based on Psalm 108:4 (NIV) “For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your fa...
