Losing the wrong things can lead you to God.
Watch your friends and family chase a feeling long enough, and you’ll notice something. The high never lasts. HOMECOMING’s “Nothing to Lose!” opens with that scene — watching friends “cry about the highs that always seem to let them down,” wondering why people keep on chasing fleeting things. The cycle of chasing fleeting highs, followed by disappointment and unsatisfying outcomes, is exhausting. There is a constant pull that makes us feel as if we’re “missing out.” Then HOMECOMING comes with a turn: “But I know that I am better off without.”
The apostle Paul understood that trade-off. Writing from prison, he said, “I count everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. For his sake I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that I may gain Christ.” (Philippians 3:8 ESV). Paul had status, credentials, and a résumé that most people would envy. But he calls it “rubbish” compared to what he found in Christ.
Here’s a question worth pondering about today: “What are you still holding onto that keeps letting you down? Chasing approval? Chasing a high that fades by morning?” This song reminds us that we shouldn’t place our confidence in the highs that depend on “the flesh”. Let it go. You won’t be losing anything that’s worth keeping.
So, go ahead and listen to “Nothing to Lose!” by HOMECOMING. May its message sink in and help you to lose whatever it is that doesn’t lead you to Christ. “You’ll never be the same.”
