‘Slow Down’ We Are Messengers Official Music Video

A group of talented musicians performs a song with a beautiful message, which most people would probably do well to listen to and implement.

Generally, most people have several things that cause them great anxiety or nervousness. There are worries about making next month’s rent, being able to afford groceries and fixing the latest issue with the beat-up, old car. Others may worry about employment issues or medical conditions. Some may even worry they've forgotten to do something or accomplish a specific task.

Yes, a majority of the population is good about fretting and panicking. However, sometimes, it helps to let worries go, give the mind a rest and relax a bit.

In the song “Slow Down” by We Are Messengers, the musicians instruct listeners to not get so worked up over everything. Instead, as the song title indicates, people should remember to “slow down.”

The track's opening verse begins by mentioning what is likely a big fear for many: the bank foreclosing on their house. But instead of immediately worrying about the situation and wondering where to live, something rather odd takes place. The lyrics state that the people mentioned in the song dance in the kitchen.

Instead of fear, dread and worry, the songwriter and the musicians have an unbelievable faith. The lyrics in the song’s chorus state that no matter what happens, everything will be OK.

“Slow down
Don’t have much but I promise you
Whatever comes you know we’ll make it through”

What an idea! Yes, there are things to be concerned about, to be prepared for and to avoid. But at the end of the day, what does worry really accomplish? It only multiplies the problem, adding unnecessary stress.

The Bible mentions that God will never leave or forsake us. Sometimes, the best thing to do is to pray and leave the situation entirely in His hands.

Matthew 6:34 “Be not therefore anxious for the morrow: for the morrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.”
