Let me give you an explanation of how the idea of F(l)ight Songs came into being and what they're are all about. I first started posting what I was calling "fight" songs while I was struggling terribly with [...]
This isn't an ordinary F(L)ight songs. However, how God met me--when I needed Him to meet me--wasn't ordinary either. Sometimes Jesus chooses to meet us halfway. It's wonderful that He plans ahead of time exactly what we'll need. I can forget, too easily, that He goes before us and He lovingly hems us in. "Lord, [...]

I'm talking about loss of interest and apathy, low mood and motivation. It can leave you feeling joyless, grey and sometimes irritable. I once read a post here on WordPress [...]
