“This one’s for the beaten down the ones who lost their rock and roll. Rise up you lost ones claim your crown. You were born to rock inside your soul.”
That's my favorite verse. Especially with everything going on in the world today. We all have a lot of things beating us down, like the economy, natural disasters, families falling apart, losing people we love to diseases. These things wear us down and weigh us down to the point that we maybe lose sight of the promises God has given us. Like the fact that this earth is a place we are only visiting, and we are royalty to the God of the Universe. And one day we will wear our crown beside a Father who loves us and has been waiting. A father who knows all the hardships and trials we have gone through and feels the pain of our losses as we were feeling them. He sheds tears with us all while all along whispering in our ear, "Oh my child, what you are going through is only temporary. There is a day and place where their will be no more tears and sorrows. And we will dance on streets of gold." So grab hold of the truth of God’s Word when you are feeling beaten down and remember you are a child of the King! That's more than enough to rock what you got and light up the lot!
Check out these TWO exclusive devotionals written by Superchick from their own songs:
Still Here - Devotion
When we were working on our last album, we found ourselves asking "How much of our lives we should really write about? How much of the good, and how much of the bad times do we share?".
'Still Here' was a song that was emotional for me to work on and record. Because for me, and so many people I love in the last few years, we have seen our share of ups and downs at so many little moments along the way. We've been affected by the economy crashing. We've sat in hospital rooms with people we love feeling helpless. We've prayed and prayed a thousand times with no "positive" answer...but we were still holding on. It's in the times like these, that you see someone standing n the midst of crazy turmoil with their feet truly planted on the ground, grabbing a hold onto the one thing that they know is solid and believing that eventually the winds will die down and there will be a time of rest.
Those are that people that are inspiring us all.
They are inspiring us to hold on, and to see that we are stronger than we believe when we know that what we hold onto is forever, and un-changing. That is ultimately, our faith. Our faith doesn't waiver when the storms try to shake it. God is who he says he is, he remains the only constant in a world full of crazy inconsistencies. Sometimes its all we can do to muster enough energy to stagger through this place we're in beaten up and bruised but not ready to give up. And that's enough.
