Christian music is such a big part of my life. There is a Christian song for everything like the song "Surrounded (Fight My Battles) by Upperroom", this is a great song for getting through a tough time in life.

1. Through It All by Colton Dixon.

In the song it says "Life's been a journey I've seen joy, I've seen regret Oh and You have been my God Through all of it". God is so amazing and it is very cool to see that God is with us through everything.

3. Breathe by Jonny Diaz

This song is such a great reminder to take a deep breath in between all the craziness of life. At some point in life we are all struggling with stress or other things life throws at us. In the song it says, "Breathe, just breathe Come and rest at my feet And be, just be Chaos calls but all you really need Is to just breathe". Just Breathe and thank God for what you have!

This song is about how God is there for us and can help us be strong enough to get through whatever it is. In the song it says, "I know I'm not strong enough to be everything that I'm supposed to be I give up I'm not strong enough, hands of mercy won't you cover me Lord right now I'm asking you to be strong enough".

God is amazing beyond belief and is a great father. In the song it says, "I couldn't earn it, and I don't deserve it, still, You give Yourself away Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God". It is amazing how God still loves us even when we make mistakes and do not listen to him.

This song is very very moving to anyone who is going through a hard time in life and dealing with self confidence. In the song it says, "Fear he is a liar He will rob your rest Steal your happiness Cast your fear in the fire' Cause fear he is a liar". In the song, it is talking about people getting in your head and telling you that you aren't worth it. The music video is very sad but eye opening. It is a great feeling that God is with us and always will be.

7. Wide Open by North Point Inside Out Feat. Clay Finnesand

Up on heavens balcony you're lookin' down and I've had my doubts, are you proud?". This song is such an inspiration and can help anyone's mood!

9. Air I Breathe By Mat Kearney

This song is talking about how God is with is in everything we do and as christians we should share his word to others. Everytime we talk it should be for God.

Knowing that God is with us in everything is very heartening.

In the song it says, "Even when the fight seems lost I'll praise you even when it hurts like hell I'll praise you even when it makes no sense to sing louder then I'll sing your praise." God is very forgiving and will always try to push us to the fullest.

11. Blessings by Laura Story

This song is such a great reminder that God gives us blessings that we can be very grateful for. In the song it says, "'Cause what if your blessings come through raindrops, what if your healing comes through tears, what if a thousand sleepless nights are what it takes to know you're near what if trials of this life are your mercies in disguise." This song is an amazing way of showing what God does for us even if they are not direct.

People want the situation to be changed for better but little to people know that God gave you this hard situation to grow closer to God and so God can teach you something.

Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.
