Listening to a great worship song can totally change your mood and your perspective. Here are 11 songs that can do just that.

“O God Forgive Us” by for KING & COUNTRY (feat. KB)

This sober song reminds us that we often fall short. We can become desensitized to our sin. Powerful songs like this can renew our perspective.

“Nothing I Hold on to” by Will Reagan, United Pursuit

"Nothing I Hold on to" is a nice calm song that focuses on trusting God and giving our lives to him. After all, isn't He the one who gave us life to begin with?

Make sure you listen til the end or else you'll miss hearing one of the best verses!

“Reckless Love” by Cory Asbury

Chances are if you listen to Contemporary Christian often you've heard this song before. That's because it's a great song! And Cory Asbury has an incredible voice. Go listen to this if you haven't already!

“Let It Happen” United Pursuit (feat. Andrea Marie)

"Let It Happen" is about how we were meant to live with passion. Sometimes we get caught up in stress… We avoid or withdraw. But we aren't meant to live that way. This song is a great reminder.

“Build My Life” by Housefires III (feat. Pat Barrett)

This is a peaceful song that focuses on how God is the only firm foundation for a good life. Check out the other songs by Housefires if you get a chance! Awesome group.

“A Prayer” by Kings Kaleidoscope

This song is very unconventional. It does have a bad word in the refrain (honestly it's for effect, it is to show you the emotional intensity of the one singing that is facing anxiety and fear). If you wish to avoid the bad word, the link to this youtube video (in the picture) does go to the clean version.

All of that aside, this is an incredible song. It is very lively. It walks you through how one feels when they are experiencing anxiety, fear, and doubt. Then closer to the end of the song the voice of Jesus breaks through. It is movingl. This is a song everyone must listen to at least once.

“I Shall Not Want” by Audrey Assad

Audrey Assad has such a beautiful voice. This is a great song that reminds us that we should be living a life unattached to the things of this world.

“Song Of My Father” by Urban Rescue

This is perfect to listen to if you are feeling anxious. It is very pleasant and shares a message of hope.

“King of the World” by Natalie Grant

This song focuses on not underestimating God and His abilities. He created everything, and we have to remember that.

“I Surrender” by Hillsong Worship

"I Surrender" is about letting go of the tight grip we have on our lives and letting God take over. It is very powerful.

"Be Still" by The Fray

"If no one is standing beside you, be still and know I am." I've loved this song for years now! An oldie but an amazing-ie. Make sure you give it a listen!

I hope you enjoyed the songs I picked out. If you didn't, keep exploring! Finding good music that speaks to you is important.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
