31days // Tunes for Tuesday

Actually, it's just one tune. But "Tunes for Tuesday" has quite a ring to it, right? 

This 31days series is just the beginning of something the Lord is doing in my life. There's no doubt in my mind that He's after my purity, that He is fighting to restore my mind and my heart where my own flesh and lies have distorted things. It's sweet, really. When you can tangibly feel that the Lord is after your heart? There's nothing better. 

I've heard this song many times, but lately, it's been speaking to me in a whole new light. 


Hallelujah, we are free to struggle. 
We're not struggling to be free. 

Those lyrics, they get me every time. We are free to struggle, but we're not struggling to be free. You are free, friend!! That habit you've been stuck in for forever, you can break it! I don't care how engrained it is, I know that you can be set free. And I only know that because of my own life, because of my own engrained habits that are now nothing but a memory.

I pray that this song blesses you today, friends. 

Love you all!

31days // Worship

Worship has made the world of a difference in my walk with the Lord, and in my pursuit of purity. Just like the Lord used community to draw me closer to Himself, He has majorly used worship music to do the same. 

Today, I want to take a break from sharing words, and instead, share some tunes. Some tunes that have some beautiful, and powerful truth in them. 

The first is a song that really touched me during a time of struggle. This time, actually. I've found that my biggest struggles are usually the ones that I walk into myself. I think this is because of all of the shame that comes with those situations, shame that doesn't come from God at all. 

This song spoke through all of the shame and condemnation that I was putting on myself, and shined the light and grace of God on me instead. I hope you feel His love through the lyrics. 


If you're in a dance-party-in-your-cubicle kind of mood today {like I am everyday}, then this song is for you. Whoever said worship music can't be dance party music was sadly mistaken. 

Case and point:


Be blessed today, friends. Love you all!
