Jenn Johnson had an interview with Kevin Davis,lead contributor at NewReleaseToday about the song and the inspiration behind it. [6] Davis asked about the personal story behind the song,to which Johnson responded saying:
A year and half ago,Brian was really going through a tough time,and it unraveled and he ended up having a nervous breakdown. ... It was a really difficult time,and God really helped him to deal with things like forgiveness and some tough meetings with people at that time. It was a beautiful,although terrible,time. Lamentations [3:28-30] says,"the 'worst' is never the worst." That was the verse that I hung onto.
–Jenn Johnson,NewReleaseToday [6]
Johnson also added that the song "felt like it was such a message and prophetic statement," and also "felt like God promised that if I wrote this song it would save people,and even people thinking of suicide can be filled with hope,even though we don't know what tomorrow holds." [6] She also listed several scriptural references from various translations to affirm the song's message. [6]
