21 Christian Songs That May Or May Not Inspire You As Much As They Inspire Me

Benih

Let's be honest: The world is a tough place and sometimes we fall through the cracks, get scraped up a bit, and need someone or something to pick us back up. Let's be honest: College is tough and sometimes we lack motivation and inspiration and sometimes we feel like the world is going to end and sometimes music is the only thing that pulls us through. Whether or not you are Christian, Catholic, Jewish, Agnostic, Atheist, have no idea, etc., these are some of my favorite songs by Christian artists and I encourage you to give at least one of these songs a listen. Whether you are into more traditional Christian music or you like music with a lot of electric guitar and songs, these songs are very uplifting and diverse and they might inspire you as much as they inspire me.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
