Local Winnipeg worship artist, Carine Bado, released a video this week of her singing "Blessed Assurance”, in French and English.
Along with the video posted on Instagram were some powerful words of prayer that encourage people to call on the name of the Lord through this time.
“While we stand up together, we also lift up Your name high over the United States and all the nations of the world.”
As a woman of colour, Bado felt that this was the perfect time to put this song out.
“With what is going on regarding racism and the tragedy of the Floyd family and many other black lives, I really felt so tired and frustrated, but just worshipping with that song has helped me renew my mind and find such a peace to know that my life depends on God’s will. He has already said that I have a future and a hope, and peace is my assurance. This is what I believe and this is what I know to be true.”
