Nothing in this life is worth the cost of losing Jesus. Let that thought sit with you for a moment as you saturate your heart in God’s goodness as you listen to ‘The Narrow Way’ by Steffany Gretzinger’s worship music video.
I don’t know what your circumstances are. Maybe your spouse has been drinking again. Perhaps you feel the sting of loneliness after shutting the door to toxic family members. Or perhaps, the depression is so dark that you can’t find your way out of it as tears stream down your face.
Everyone’s struggles and pain are unique. A deeper struggle in the life of every Christ follower comes when we ask the next question: Where is God in my pain and suffering? I’m no expert in suffering, but the worst pain is when we are in the middle of a storm, and God feels so distant. Stephanie Gretzinger’s worship song will anchor your soul to his. Let her words move you into the heart of Jesus as you sing, “Lead me, Lord, lead me. Keep me, oh, keep me from wandering. Help me, Lord, help me. Teach me, oh, teach me your suffering.”
Her worship song reminds us nothing in this life is worth the cost of losing Christ. He is our treasure and our prize in the midst of joy, suffering, pain, and heartache. Even if we could trade the pain for peace, it would be nothing without Jesus at the center.
The beauty of our lives is when we stay on the narrow path and keep our eyes on Jesus. There we will find Christ. We will also find joy in the mist pain, strength when we are weak, and hope when all seems lost. Steffany’s worship song reminds us not to stop seeking God. He is there.
May this beautiful and soul-stirring song be a balm for your wounds and a source of solace with Christ at the center.
