"Kind (Remix by Cory Asbury)" by Josh Bissell: Why Your Doubts Won't Disqualify You


One of the hardest truths to hold is the fact that God's kindness remains when your life seems to be falling apart. Josh Bissell's acoustic cover of Cory Asbury's "Kind" delivers this message with courage and honesty. 

Josh Bissell - Kind (Remix by Cory Asbury )The key message of the song is that it is okay to be real! The lyrics don't flinch from reality: "Sometimes marriages don't work. Sometimes babies die. Sometimes rehab turns to relapse." The pain that you feel is very real and needs to be acknowledged and handled… Yes, it is okay to give voice to your hidden wars, to wonder if God is real, to question why healing seems to be selective, angry at heaven with "fist raised to the sky," or simply feeling that His amazing grace seems to be "for everybody else." 

After more than a few Sundays smiling through pain, pretending that all is well, this song finally names the pain and struggle. But more importantly, it points us to the cross. Instead of offering quick fixes, "Kind" places the crucified Christ right in the center of our suffering. The chorus becomes a defiant declaration: through our holy wars and running away, we've met only kindness. 

So, what burden are you carrying around on your own? This song is your invitation to bring it into the light - place it before God. Your doubts don't disqualify you. Your shame isn't the final word. The very mess you carry is where His kindness shines the most. 

Go ahead, listen closely. May the lyrics validate your struggle and give you the courage to lift your eyes to the One who suffered first. All He's ever been is kind, and His kindness changes everything.

(Related scripture: Romans 5:8; Romans 2:4; Hebrews 4:15–16; 1 Peter 2:24)
