Jesus | Dawson Cowals

Coming soon to a couch near you! We’ve been booking some intimate home shows in the Portland area this summer and are looking for some more homes to invade. So if you would like to host an Acoustic Living Room Concert please let us know!
“Cowals’ tunes are full and captivating whether he is playing solo acoustic guitar or accompanied by a handful of other talented musicians. The multi-talented artist’s flute work and lackadaisical vocal octave jumps throughout certain songs also give these Biblical verse driven tunes a Dave Matthews feel.” —Kelly O’Neil

0 Take Deeper Root

Storms make trees take deeper roots.
—Claude McDonald

We should let the storms in our lives drive our roots deeper into the strength of our Rock—Jesus! Instead of throwing our fist in the air against God we need to rely and lean on his strength when the hurricanes threaten to rip us out of the soil.

Trust in God and flourish as a tree!
—Proverbs 11:28b

0 No Worries In a Year of Drought

I really loved the assurance and hope this passage brings. If we trust in the Lord he will sustain us even in periods of drought!

“But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” —Jeremiah 17:7, 8

Let us trust in the Lord and sink our roots into him as our Rock and sure foundation. For in him we find the living water that will not run dry even when it feels like we are in dry period with the heat burning down on us.

So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.
—Colossians 2:6, 7
