Doing Okay at the moment, I guess. I have days when I don't have the strength to get out of bed and then there are days we're I'll loathe in pain. Depressed? Maybe, but after buying Jars of Clay, Who we are Instead was a pleasant distraction. In fact it was refreshing. Musically, does not get better than this. Whether you're a fan or not (My unbiased rating, just remember Tree 63 is my ultimate followed by Switchfoot etc.) this album deserves 10/10. Their change of sound from rock to folk/country/blues was masterclass in keeping their identity intact. Layman terms, they still sound like Jars of Clay and you can recognize them pretty easily. None of those lyric cliches that Contemporay Christian artist's have bashed to death. The main highlight or more specifically my point of today's blog. The one recurring theme in all of their songs:
Jesus Defines Who You Are.
Too often I think as God's people we often forget and need to reminded daily, that we are, who we are, because of Jesus. I'm pledge guilty, charged with guilt in the first degree. This all points to a simply yet abrupt conclusion. I'm sorry old sinner in deperate need of God's sore grace that comes only through his Son, Jesus.
