Be In Perfect Peace: Encouragement & Song for You to Overcome




I hope you’ve been able to stay creative and thrive even in quarantine. I wanted to share this rough draft snippet of a song in-progress (and beginning of an illustration) that I wrote recently – itā€™s a wonder how you can be inspired when youā€™re inside all day šŸ˜’ šŸ’šŸ½. I was actually listening to Pastor Toure at The Potterā€™s House at One LAā€™s message in March titled ā€œAll We Do Is Winā€ (check out the archives for the replay – itā€™s powerful) and the lyrics to this song began coming to me.

The theme is how God can surround us in His love ā¤ļø & give us His perfect peace even when we donā€™t know how to be peaceful and we are surrounded by darkness and anxiety. Some of my mentors throughout my life have said to speak and declare the Word aloud even if you donā€™t feel like it or your circumstances donā€™t look like what you have faith for. God spoke the world into motion and tells us to speak truth because the power of life is in our tongue.

Here are some of the lyrics to one of the verses that I hope allow others to speak life over their circumstances – when I get out of the house to record it:



You, give me hope when troubles rise
And you help me when I donā€™t know what to do
Your joy it gives me clarity
You give me purpose
And Renew my identity
So I, I will rest and trust you now
And I, will trade my heavy burdens for your light

You give me perfect peace
Take all the insecurity
When Iā€™m surrounded
Your perfect loveā€™s surrounding me
Give me perfect peace
Bring me to Your reality
I know youā€™re greater
Your presence puts my soul at ease, at ease
Iā€™m free, Iā€™m free

Felt so unstable but You are my stability
Even when the world shakes youā€™re holding me
Felt so unable
But You are my ability
Cause In my weakness you strengthen me
