"Songs have become my way of finding beauty in the midst of chaos and pain. It's a way of finding redemption for mistakes and regrets that I have.
In this way I feel like the creative process brings me closer to God. As a creator of a song I get to take all these broken fragments of failure and chaos and weave together something beautiful and meaningful. Decay. Death. Pain. Fall. And if God is a songwriter then these fallen leaves of mine can be redeemed."
-Jon Foreman
My redemption comes in knowing that all my failures have shaped me to be the person I am today. Still not a perfect person... Even though perfection isn't attainable. I know that God has placed me here for a reason. Waiting is just the hardest part.
I was born in Houston adopted at the age of seven months, moved to a few different places, only to end up back at the start. Chicago, San Diego, West Palm Beach and Miami have all been places my mail has come to.
I must admit my stay in Florida has definitely been my favorite. I can still smell the salty sea air. I still know exactly where I played my first beach concert. Even though it was only for me, the sea, its inhabitants, and God. The sunsets and sun rises all paint pictures of melodies and harmonies in my dreams.
My music comes from a place of deep desparation.
Desperate to know God in every facet.
Desperate to make His name famous.
Desperate to feel His love in every nerve, tissue and organ of my body.
Desperate to worship Him every day with every fiber of my being.
My songs mostly concentrate on love. I've never known such a deep love like God has for us. Even though I've tried. I've tried real hard. Only to be hurt, dissapointed, abandoned...
Three things God will never do.
I've made my mistakes.
I've made really bad decisions.
I've used horrible judgment.
I've hurt people along the way.
I've stumbled.
I've buried myself ten feet under.
In all these things, God is still there.
He's still everpresent in my life. When I've looked back on my life I see where He has carried me through. And has never left.
This is all for Him and because of Him. I could never do it on my own. And I will try my hardest to never try to do it on my own again.
"Im just here to be me.
To worship whole heartedly.
To spread the news of God's love excitedly.
To take back what the enemy has stolen from me.
All to see HIS name be praised, famously".
