Why You Should Never Underestimate the Power of a Song

You never know the power of a word or a song. We loved hearing Ashton’s story about how God used just the right combination of these two things to keep her on a path of LIFE!

I have been listening to WAY-FM for a long time (longer than I can remember), but it has always been off and on.

I heard Oceans by Hillsong for the first time when my pastor and his wife played it during our worship time at my church.

I had not been listening to WAY-FM at the time, but that song really made me think of it again. My church drive is 45 minutes long and I kept not wanting to listen to Christian music for whatever reason. When I heard the song Oceans played that morning at church, I left feeling excited and fired up.

I turned on your station and the first song I heard was Oceans! The DJ was Joy.

Oceans has changed my life and I now listen to WAY-FM all the time. Joy has also changed my life because of how down-to-earth she is all the time.

I cannot tell you how much I need to hear the things Joy says when she says them. I struggle with depression and I have really been contemplating the worst for my life. When I hear Carlos and Joy on my drive home from work every day and Joy on Sundays, not only do they remind me of the day I heard Oceans for the first time, but I am also reminded about how God has placed Joy there to speak the love of God to my life. I feel like Joy’s heart has made me steer away from negativity and depression and it has also shown me the love of God through her. I love laughing with Joy as well as hearing her pour out her heart.

Joy has been the love of God to me and I am so thankful for her and the ministry of WAY-FM confirming to me that God is with me, even when I feel alone or depressed.
