Flowers

Flowers x Joshua Luke Smith Ft Madison Ryann Ward

Music is good for the soul. I think I may have gotten my love for music from my dad’s side. It’d be awesome to find out for sure someday. This song was released this past Friday and it’s been on repeat since. It was a great reminder to stop and smell the flowers on my way. Sometimes we get so caught up in what’s happening that we forget to take a moment to appreciate the little things. I needed this. It’s rare that you find music with meaning these days.

“Adonai will fulfill His purpose for me”

Faded Dreams analysis

Music speaks to us in so many ways.

“Though it tried to break me down I’m still here and I’m standing.”

“God my protector, with me forever.. he got my back.”

Simple reminders keep me grounded.

Tomorrow – well today because it’s 12:19am? will be two weeks since my husbands been home while I work. The first week was filled with stress and anxiety but this week we’ve been able to embrace the time together. I work from home so it’s been great having someone here to distract me and have lunch with. Still remaining hopeful although there’s been no update on when he can return to work from his employer. Trusting God to work this one out for our good. He’s got our back😉

A New Thing Tour

Madison Ryann Ward – Mercury Lounge NYC 9/3/23

I was blessed with the opportunity to see Madison Ryann Ward on her first ever tour over the holiday weekend. Her album A New Thing has healed my soul in ways I never knew were possible. It has healed parts of me I didn’t know needed healing.

Through her music you can tell she’s got a genuinely relatable love for Christ. I love seeing young adults like myself not ashamed to spread the love of God. It was a joy seeing her in person. She walked right by where we were standing to make her way to the stage and I’m surprised I held it together. I can’t wait to see how God uses her for his glory.

The album will always be a favorite of mine because it brought me back to a place I had strayed so far from. This tour is just a small stepping stone for what God has in store for her. She’s got a voice that can calm the storm.
