Lauren Daigle Is Topping Pop Charts As A Christian Artist, And It's Wonderful News

I promise you that Christian music is so much more that a hymn or the "church-y" songs you might think of.

Ever heard of the song "You Say?" Well, here you go.

This song has been on top pop charts on the radio, Spotify, Apple Music and more. It has been in the top hits along with songs from Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, Khalid, Post Malone, Halsey, The Chainsmokers, Lauv and so much more. Lauren Daigle is actually a Christian artist whose new album "Look Up Child" is being praised by many. So much so, that she won a Grammy for Best Contemporary Christian Music Album and Best Contemporary Christian Music Performance/Song.

In the Christian music industry, Lauren Daigle has been very successful for roughly four years. Shortly after Selena Gomez shared Daigle's music to her millions of followers on Instagram last year, Daigle's songs blew up.

"You Say" is about when you don't feel like you are enough, God is right there to tell you that those feelings are wrong and that you are enough.

These words were so powerful to others that she is also amongst the best musicians in the lineup for Hangout Music Festival and Firefly Music Festival. It also has been featured in covers by other artists including the well-known sister group called Cimorelli.

This has been a success in the Christian music industry. People want to hear Christian music during a time when it would have seemed that this would be the opposite. It's great music that makes you feel better than before you listened to it. It serves as nothing, but positive and loving words, instead of the derogatory or negative music that is also popular today.

Other artists such as Avril Lavinge and Tori Kelly have also released Christian songs while being known as some of the more popular alternative and pop artists.

Whether you believe in God or what these songs are telling you or not, just know that every word is true because it is backed up by the word of God. Those other songs that you hear on the radio aren't going to fulfill you as these worship songs will. I can't express enough how powerful these words will be to your heart.

I encourage you to listen to this genre and to keep listening. It is only going up from here.

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.
