The Message Translation (MSG).

It's so special. Before I release my songs, I will make a release schedule with the Spirit. He tells me months up front, which song to release on which day.

So these last Psalms were picked months before they were actually released. And it's so fitting for the times. They all share the same themes: Look up, not down, don't be afraid, expect God to not let you down and be thankful. But above all: look up!

This Psalm 25 says to keep your eyes on God. Focus on Him. Don't look down, don't look to your left or right, don't be distracted by what's going on, eyes on Him. Run to Him.

I gotta be honest with you. We're both tired from these months of creating new music, videos, doing interviews, answering thousands of emails and messages, it's a lot. We love it and we're deeply thankful for this beautiful Project of Love. But it's hard work.

So this Psalm is especially true and a timely reminder for me and us. Keep our eyes on God. Especially now.

But that's the thing, right? You can't just talk about faith, you have to put it into action.

Same for leaps of faith: it doesn't count to think about them. You have to put your foot forward, in the dark, in the unknown, and expect Him to be there.

So pray with me as we go forward: "Keep watch over me and keep me out of trouble. Don't let me down, when I run to You" (Psalm 25: 20 MSG) 🙏❤️
