Everybody has ups and downs throughout their lifetime. We all have different ways of getting through the tough times. Whether we look to others for an encouraging word, pray, or cope on our own, we typically do something. Maybe you were having a great day and you stubbed your toe all of a sudden and it just brought you down. Here's a list of twelve songs that can be spiritually uplifting.

1. "Breathe" by Jonny Diaz

When the stress is on the rise in my heart I feel you say just
Breathe, just breathe
Come and rest at my feet
And be, just be
Chaos calls but all you really need
Is to just breath


2. "Tell Your Heart To Beat Again" by Danny Gokey

Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

3. "Not Backing Down" by Blanca

No, I’m not backing down
No, you can’t count me out
Nothing in this world gonna stop me now

4. "It's A Beautiful Day" by Jamie Grace

And oh there's something 'bout the way
Your sun shines on my face
It's a love so true, I can never get enough of you
This feeling can't be wrong!
I'm about to get my worship on
Take me away!
It's a beautiful day.
It's a beautiful day.

5. "Fighter" by Jamie Grace

He's a fighter, got that fire
When they thought he'd fade away
Throws a fist up, as he gets up
Feelin' stronger everyday

6. "Gold" by Britt Nicole
This, this is for all the girls, boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine
From the inside out it shows, you're worth more than gold

7. "Hello, My Name Is" by Matthew West
Oh, these are the voices. Oh, these are the lies
And I have believed them for the very last time

Hello, my name is child of the one true King
I’ve been saved, I’ve been changed, I have been set free

8. "Glow In The Dark" by Jason Gray

Let the world see what you're made of
That His love's alive in your deepest parts
Like a flame, like a burning star you can shine right where you are
He made you to glow in the dark

9. "Forgiveness" by TobyMac

'Cause we all make mistakes sometimes
And we've all stepped across that line
But nothing's sweeter than the day we find
Forgiveness, forgiveness

10. "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten

Starting right now I'll be strong
I'll play my fight song
And I don't really care if nobody else believes
'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

11. "You Are More" by Tenth Avenue North

You are more than the choices that you've made,
You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,
You are more than the problems you create,
You've been remade.

12. "Flawless" by MercyMe

No matter the bumps
No matter the bruises
No matter the scars
Still the truth is
The cross has made
The cross has made you flawless

There are so many encouraging and uplifting songs out there. I picked a few of my favorites. If you have the chance, check them out!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
