I have always loved Lauren Daigle's music. The lyrics to her songs really speak to you and the meaning behind them is absolutely beautiful, but her new album, "Look Up Child," is a new level of amazing. Here are five songs you have to listen to from her new album.

1. Rescue 

This is one of my favorite songs on Lauren's new album. If there has ever been a song that talks about how far God will go for us and to save us, this is it. Whenever we feel like we are at our lowest point or as if we have nothing left, God is there and wants us to know that he will move mountains to rescue us. He will never stop searching and going after us and our hearts.

2. You Say.

This is my absolute favorite song on the entire album because I relate to it so much! The song starts off by talking about how we fight voices and lies in our heads that tell us we aren't enough and won't measure up to what we think or what society tells us we need to be. In today's world, it is so easy to listen to what society tells us and the enemy only uses that to attack us even more. This song talks about how when we find ourselves in these situations God tells us the opposite of what we feel. He tells us that we are loved, we are strong, we are held, and we belong. It's time we block out what society and the enemy say and listen to what HE says about us because that is all that matters.

3. This Girl 

We are all human and sometimes we can venture off of the path and lose sight of God. Sometimes, we venture so far that we feel like we can't see him at all, but in all of those situations he is watching us and trying to guide us home. No matter where we go or what we search and find, nothing will ever compare to God's unwavering love for us. "This Girl" is a song that talks about that and expresses how when we venture and come back home to God's love we aren't going anywhere else because nothing compares to him.

4. Love Like This 

What did we do to deserve a love like God's? That's what this song asks. We are sinners, yet he loves us unconditionally. Jesus died and suffered on a cross all because he loved us. What did we do to deserve such a love? He gives it freely and is just waiting for us to come to him and receive his love in full force.

5. Look Up Child 

I love this song on the album! Not only does it just make you feel so good and want to dance, but the meaning behind it is so special. Often times we ask where God is in certain situations. We ask where he is in the darkness, in the midst of our sadness and chaos, in our doubt and he responds, "look up child." He is in every situation, good or bad, and he is always in control.

These are just a few of my favorite songs from Lauren Daigle's new album. I encourage you to listen, not only to these but the entire album as well. All of these songs are special and have a beautiful meaning. If you are feeling worried, anxious, depressed, or you just want to praise the Lord and listen to how much he loves you, this is the album for you!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

2028

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Whether you believe astrology is a legitimate "science" or not, we have all found ourselves looking at our horoscopes from time to time. The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

Each sign is determined by the relative positions of celestial bodies to ourselves at our moment of birth, which is said to influence our personalities. Find your zodiac GIF below, based on the traits and characteristics provided by each sign.
