The Playlist #30: 5 songs that will help you to keep on

Lilly Million – Pretence

Album: Crazy Believer

Lilly Million is one of my favorite female artists from South Africa. Her music just has this purity and honesty that I find really refreshing. In the song Pretence, she talks about the struggle to be real when things are not okay and how unhealthy it is to hide behind smiles and bravado. She then ties it off by showing us that we don’t need to pretend and that true peace and freedom are found in Christ.

Living in this fallen world gets hard sometimes and some things seem like they only happen to us.

Scars are a part of life embrace them and look to God for strength and joy.
