In the song ‘Remedy’ from Rachel Lampa’s album “All We Need” she sings about the one true solution for our lives:
I know where to go, to heal my heart, to sooth my soul,
But everything’s spinning out of control!
I know, I know to stay alive it gets so crazy day and night
But I got somebody by my side, by my side!Every time I cry, and I wanna hide,
Feeling like I’m damaged on the inside,
You know just what to do!Chorus:
You got what I need, you’re the remedy,
That’s why I’m keeping you close, you close
You know what’s best for me,
My only therapy…Jesus your love is my hope, my hope!
You’re my remedy, you’re my remedy!
You’re my remedy, you’re my remedy!On point, off track, one step forward, two steps back,
Some days are gonna just like that, just like that!
You’re my medicine…
Relieve my pain again and again
Always take me back, no matter where I’ve been, where I’ve beenEvery time I’m hurt and it doesn’t work
Feeling like it never could get any worse
I come running to you…

Artist Notes & Inspiration: Tiffany Stanley on Her Acoustic EP ‘Love Spoken’
A few months back we featured Tiffany Stanley in our Artist Snapshots and shared the inspiring music from her album ‘Revival.’ Tiffany is working on new music, and released a FREE EP called ‘Love, Spoken’ which brings glory to God in soothing acoustic worship. I asked Tiffany what the 
story and inspiration is behind the EP and here’s what she had to say:
Tiffany Stanley on ‘Love Spoken’
‘Love Spoken’ is simply about the love that the Lord speaks over our lives daily. How that love literally overtakes our worries, burdens and strife, and leaves us in a place of longing to exalt Him! I ask myself, ‘How does love speak, and what does it say when it does?’ That’s the question I wanted to write about in this EP. The answer is, God is love (1 John 4:8) and in that love there is a whole lot of peace, life, healing & comfort.
There is an immense amount of freedom in love, chains are broken, relationships are fortified, and lives are changed. These three songs derived from personal times of worship with the Lord, and I pray that you are deeply moved into worship with the creator of the universe through them.
“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.” John 15:9
I find myself at a loss for words, because there is a certain quality about God’s love, and I find it to be quite unexplainable.. the way He loves us. It is so beautiful. It leaves me in awe and takes my breath away. The fact is: He speaks love over us everyday and I wanted to cultivate that thought into these songs. I give all the credit to Jesus, because He is the author & writer of them. My heart was simply inspired by His love.
You can download ‘Love Spoken’ for free at www.noisetrade.com/tiffanystanley. Visit Tiffany’s website at http://tiffanystanley.com to learn more about her ministry and to purchase her music – stay tuned for new music coming soon. You can also connect with her on Twitter and Facebook for more inspiration from her ministry.

When You See Her – Show Some Love
You see her in the corner sitting quietly in the back of the classroom as everyone chatters away, she’s staring down at her books to pretend she’s occupied when really she just wants it to swallow her up; she just wants to disappear. Some might take her expressionless, tense face as a little snooty a little off-putting, but really she is scared. She tries not to draw attention but even when silent somehow she draws in mean girls like flies.
At lunch time she doesn’t want to face them, and their jeering so she heads to the empty stairwell to eat her sandwich, alone.
Sometimes she locks herself in a bathroom stall, her forehead against the cold wall, tears streaming down her face. She doesn’t dare look up at the scribbling on the painted brick for fear that her name could be scrawled there.
She might be shy, might be new, a little lost and awkward maybe but she definitely needs a friend. She might be at your school, in your class, on your bus ride home.
If you got to know her you’d find that she likes to laugh, loves that show you watch, you’d see there’s more to her then meets the eye. If you would only meet her eyes, smile and introduce yourself you might be surprised. If only…
But for now she sits alone. Her face may not say it but inside she’s longing for someone, someone to notice, wishing someone would take the time to see her, to really see her, say hi and show her some love.
How do I know? Because she was once me.
Show some love today – you never know what effect your words and kindness can have on someone who is hurting.
- Julene, Editor of SOAR
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.
1 John 4:7-12
