In a world overflowing with needs and cries for help, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed. Inspired by Luke 10, Benjamin William Hastings’ song “Move” captures this struggle beautifully, highlighting the tension between our desire to act and our hesitation to respond. The lyrics resonate deeply, reminding us that feeling moved isn’t enough – we must also take action.

“Inspired by Luke 10, this song confronts the struggle many of us face when overwhelmed by the cries for help around us. ‘Move’ is all about the tension between feeling moved to act and the reluctance to do so. My hope for this song is that it encourages us to take responsibility to respond when we are moved.”

A Call to Responsibility

“Move” invites listeners to confront their feelings of compassion and challenge the inertia that often holds us back. Hastings encourages us to look beyond our comfort zones and embrace the responsibility to respond. This theme is particularly relevant today as we witness global challenges and local needs that require our attention.

Sponsoring a Child Through Compassion

For children living in poverty, needs are great. These little ones are often without the food, medical care and encouragement they need to thrive. But by moving with compassion, we can fight back against child poverty. By sponsoring a child, you’re not just offering financial support – you’re investing in a life and making a tangible difference in the world.

Each sponsorship provides essential resources like education, medical care and spiritual guidance, allowing children to grow and realize their God-given potential.

A Move to Action

Hastings’ “Move” serves as a powerful anthem for this cause, urging us to act on the compassion we feel. It’s a call to step into the lives of those who need us most.

As you listen to the song, reflect on how you can respond to the needs around you. Whether it’s through sponsorship, volunteering or simply reaching out to those in your community, let this song inspire you to move and make a meaningful impact in Jesus’ name.
