Sometimes life gets shaky. It can be hard to find your footing when everything seems to fall out from under your feet. It can be even harder to keep the faith and keep going when the road that was once clearly marked is now blurry and out of focus. We all have moments when our carefully laid plans are torn apart, but that doesn't mean they can't be put back together again. If you're feeling lost or shaken, here are five songs to help you find your faith again.
1. "Make a Way" by I Am They
"Wherever you lead me, I know you won't leave me. Wherever you call me, you will make a way."
This song has been my anthem lately. Whenever the future seems unsure and I feel lost, I remember that God won't leave me and that He will make a way if I just believe. Uncertainty for the future is a feeling that comes and goes throughout life, but He has a plan for it all.
2. "Not for a Moment (After All)" by Meredith Andrews
"After all, You are constant. After all, You are only good.
After all, You are sovereign. Not for a moment will You forsake me."
Although there may be rough waters ahead, take hope in the fact that God will always be there, always be the same, and always be good. He never leaves. He will never forsake you. It's easy to forget this little gem of reassurance, but it's so true. People come and go, but God always stays. He was faithful in the past, will be in the future, and is here in the present.
3. "Desert Soul" by Rend Collective
"All that I am is dry bones without you Lord - a desert soul. I am broken but I'm running, towards you God. You make me whole."
Everyone goes through dry seasons in life. Whether it's in faith, relationships, or personal growth. When those parched moments seem all consuming, run to God. Having a foundation to rely on whenever life starts to play tricks on you will help make sure you don't falter.
4. "You Have Me" by Gungor
"Out on the farthest edge, there in the silence. You were there... Always faithful, always good. You still have me. You still have my heart."
This has been and always will be one of my favorite songs. It's always a good strategy when you're feeling lost to look back on the times before when you were lost. You will make it through, just like you did in the past. God was always there, too, during those rough times. It just takes looking back on your own resilience and God's faithfulness in your life to restore a sense of peace.
5. "Back's Against the Wall" by Judah and the Lion
"Just stand strong, hold onto hope. Just grab on, don't ever let it go. When your backs against the wall you're not alone."
If all else fails, always remember that you're never alone. There's always someone there for you, in every circumstance. Remember that.
