Walking With Him: The Story Behind "Broken Wings"

Life doesn’t always go the way we hope. We face hardships, loss, and moments where it feels like we can’t go on. But instead of praying for the pain to be taken away, sometimes the greater strength comes in enduring it, in learning how to rise even when we are broken.

This song is not about seeking escape but about finding resilience. It’s about the quiet moments of faith, when we lean on His grace not for an easy path, but for the strength to walk through the storm. Every note, every word carries this message—of endurance, of hope, and of the beauty in rising despite our scars. This is why I wrote Broken Wings.

There was a time when I felt like I was standing at the edge of something vast—an endless space between where I was and where I longed to be. "Broken Wings" wasn’t just a song; it was a reflection of that journey, a quiet realization that even when we feel too weak to move forward, we are never truly alone.

A Song of Surrender and Strength

I wrote Broken Wings in a moment of vulnerability, not as a cry of defeat, but as a testament to what it means to walk by faith, even when the ground beneath us feels unsteady. Sometimes, we chase after our own plans, only to find ourselves lost or weighed down by expectations. But what happens when we let go, when we allow ourselves to be guided rather than trying to control everything?

The lyrics came to me as I reflected on that question—on how we often feel like we have to be strong on our own, when in reality, our greatest strength comes in trusting Him. It’s in those moments of surrender that we find the courage to take another step.

Walking With Him, Not Alone

The path of faith is not about walking perfectly; it’s about walking with Him. There are days when the journey feels uncertain when the weight of our struggles makes it seem impossible to move forward. But the truth is, He walks with us—whether we’re soaring high or struggling to take another step.

This is what I want Broken Wings to remind people of:

That our faith is not about never falling—it’s about getting up again.

That even in the quiet, even in the pain, He is there.

That the journey isn’t about reaching perfection but about learning to trust the One who leads us.

The Journey Continues

Walking with Him is not a destination; it’s a daily choice. Some days, the steps come easily. Other days, it takes everything in us just to move forward. But we don’t have to do it alone.

This song was never just about brokenness. It’s about what happens after—about finding faith even in uncertainty, about rising even when our wings feel too fragile to fly.

Wherever you are on your journey, I hope Broken Wings reminds you that you are never walking alone.
