Remember the sinking of the Titanic, you know, the unsinkable ship, according to experts? Well, there are many stories about the sinking, and one involves a key. We know the Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg, but according to the story, an ordinary key could have saved the Titanic from disaster. The key is thought to have fit the locker that contained the crow's nest binoculars, vital for detecting threats to the liner lurking in the sea in the pre-sonar days of 1912. Catastrophically for the Titanic and the 1,522 lives lost with her, the key's owner, Second Officer David Blair, was removed from the crew at the last minute and, in his haste, forgot to hand the key to his replacement. Without access to the glasses, the lookouts in the crow's nest were forced to rely on their eyes and saw the iceberg only when it was too late to take action. One, Fred Fleet, who survived the disaster, later told the official inquiry into the tragedy that if they had had binoculars, they would have seen the obstacle sooner. So the binoculars were on the ship, but because they did not have the key, they couldn’t get to them to avert the disaster.

In life, it’s often the little things that cause us tragedy. Could Satan convince you God isn’t real? No. Could Satan convince you Jesus doesn’t love you? Probably not. But could Satan convince you that you don’t have time to read your Bible? Could he convince you that you are too tired to go to church? Could he convince you that the quick prayer you hastily prayed was sufficient? Maybe. They may seem like small things, but in time they may sink your life. You may not see that iceberg ahead, that tragedy about to happen in your life, if you aren’t watching. Stay alert; keep your eyes on the Lord and do the small things, and you will be ready when the icebergs of life come your way. Matt:24:43 says, “But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.”

1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.

Song of Solomon 2:15 Take us the foxes, the little foxes, that spoil the vines: for our vines have tender grapes.

Luke 16:10 "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much."

Remember the sinking

NASHVILLE (July 24, 2026) — GRAMMY®-nominated singer Autumn Nelon releases her deeply personal new single, “I’ll Find You,” today through Gaither Music Group. Released just two days before the second anniversary of the loss of her family and close friends—including her mother, Kelly Nelon Clark, and sister, Amber Nelon Kistler, both beloved members of the acclaimed Gospel group The Nelons, along with family friend Melodi Hodges. “I’ll Find You” was penned by Nelon, alongside Joseph Habedank and Kenna Turner West in 2025, less than one year after the tragic event. The lyrics give voice to the questions, heartbreak, and longing that accompanied Nelon’s loss while ultimately pointing listeners toward the assurance of heaven and the joy of reunion with loved ones.

In July 2024, while traveling to join the Gaither Homecoming Alaska Cruise, members of The Nelons and members of their team lost their lives in a plane accident. Autumn, who had traveled separately, was the only surviving member of the Gospel music group.

Listen to the “I’ll Find You” single HERE (available as digital audio and video).

Anchored by Nelon’s emotional performance, the heartfelt recording reflects both the reality of grief and the unshakable hope found in God’s promise of eternity, reminding listeners that, through faith, goodbye is never the end of the story.

“There are moments when grief leaves you with more questions than answers,” said Nelon. “This song gave voice to so many of the emotions I’ve carried over the past two years, but more importantly, it reminds me that because of Jesus, loss is never the end of the story. I hold on to the hope that one day I’ll see my family again, and I pray this song brings comfort to anyone who’s missing someone they love.”

As the only surviving performing member of the beloved Gospel music family, Nelon has continued to carry forward The Nelons’ legacy with remarkable grace, encouraging audiences with unwavering faith in the midst of profound personal loss. While honoring the foundation laid by generations before her, she continues to establish her own voice through music that is both deeply personal and firmly rooted in hope.

“One of the hardest parts of grief is knowing how much my mom and sister have missed here on earth, including meeting my first child,” said Nelon. “There are so many moments I wish I could share with them, and that’s reflected throughout this song. But I also believe they’re seeing my life unfold in ways I can’t fully understand yet. Every time I sing, I hope I’m honoring the legacy they left behind, and I pray they’d be proud of the life and ministry I’m continuing in their memory.”

“‘I’ll Find You’ is more than a beautiful song; it’s a testimony,” said Paul Sizelove, President of Sun Label Group and Gaither Music Group. “Autumn has chosen to share one of the most personal chapters of her life with honesty, grace and unwavering faith. We believe this recording will minister to countless people who are walking through grief by reminding them that, in Christ, our greatest hope is the promise of eternal reunion.”

Raised among the rich harmonies and timeless songs that made The Nelons one of Gospel music’s most beloved families, Nelon blends Southern Gospel traditions with contemporary worship influences and a touch of country. Her authenticity, warmth and heartfelt delivery continue to resonate with audiences, offering encouragement through songs that point listeners toward Christ.

“I’ll Find You” is available now on all digital streaming platforms on digital audio and video.

Biblical discernment is a requirement, not a rare spiritual gift. In essence, discernment is the ability to distinguish between right and wrong, or between biblical truth and error. It isn’t just the pastor or spiritual leader who is to use discernment, but rather all believers. 1 Thessalonians 5:21-22 teaches that it is the responsibility of every Christian to be discerning: "But examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good; abstain from every form of evil." Then we find in 1 John 4:1, "Do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits to see whether they are from God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world."

We are responsible for discerning the right thing to do based on God’s Word, but there is a second part, which is that once we make a proper discernment, we must make the right decision. To discern requires knowing God’s Word, which requires us to read, study, and assimilate it into our lives. Once we discern what is right to do, we must then make that decision to fulfill God’s plan for our lives. Many today have difficulty in their Christian walk because they know what they should do, but then decide to do something different. Some may say to just pray for discernment, and sometimes it is appropriate; yet in general, discernment can be learned through knowledge of God’s Word. Remember this passage in 2 Timothy 2:15, "Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth"? Let’s determine to have discernment in our lives and prepare to have it, and then have the strength and courage to follow through by making the right decision.

Hebrews 5:14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

Ezekiel 44:23 And they shall teach my people the difference between the holy and profane, and cause them to discern between the unclean and the clean.

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
