God gave me a tongue to worship His name—I will sing loud! Worship is a special and joyful time with God. Here are 10 songs I will always be singing in His name.

1. Overwhelmed—Big Daddy Weave

Psalm 145:5 “I will speak of your splendor and glorious majesty and your wondrous works” (CSB). The power and beauty of God is astonishing. The wonderful blessings He does day-to-day is enough to take the air from my lungs—all He has done is so overwhelming. There is no one more beautiful. There is no one more wonderful. There is no one more glorious.

2. Jesus in Disguise—Brandon Heath

The power of the Holy Spirit is great. Finding Jesus in the small things is just as important as finding Him in the big things. This song reminds me how God works—when that thought pops into my head out of nowhere or the tugging of my heart, it is Him. I pray the lyrics of this song: “Open my eyes, wide as I can, blind as I am.”

3. Broken Hallelujah—The Afters

God has always been with me—long before my parents even knew of me and I was still a creation in the works at God’s hands, He has been there. God did not make me perfect—in fact, He made me perfectly imperfect. I will never have a gift great as the one He gave me, and so I raise my empty hands to Him in worship and present Him with my broken hallelujah with all my heart.

4. This is Amazing Grace—Phil Wickham

No king is as great as my King. He has an unfailing love for me despite all my sins. God’s son Jesus laid down his own life so I would not have to carry my own cross and bear my sins alone—He set me free. I stand breathless in awe and wonder before Him. I will continue to proclaim, “Jesus, I sing for you and all you have done for me.”

5. Cornerstone—Hillsong Worship

Cornerstone (n.): something that is essential, indispensable; the chief foundation on which something is constructed or developed. This foundation will stand strong through the storm and it will give me a place to rest, and it will never change or falter. He makes me strong in times of weakness. He is lord, lord of all.

6. Search My Heart—Hillsong United

With all I am, I will follow Him. Without Him, I am nothing. I give my life to Him, so He may have his way. I worship Him with all my heart and all of my soul. He hears my cries and He hears my prayers. My life was restored by Jesus carrying my cross and taking my shame with Him. I give my heart to God so He may enclose it with the greatest love I will ever come to know.

7. So Will I (100 Billion x)—Hillsong United

All of His creations sing His praise—so will I. His wonderful work and love is reflected in all things of this earth: the crystal blue sky, the leaves on the trees a green words cannot explain, the way snow glitters in the sun like trillions of diamonds, the colors painting the sky during a sunset. Let me be like those. Let me be a direct reflection of the undeserving love and grace I have been blessed to know. I am a beautiful masterpiece of God’s hands.

8. Lead Me—Sanctus Real

I pray for God to lead me, because I cannot do this alone. I ask Him to give me the strength to be what I am called to be. In times I feel alone and am weak, His strong hands lift me up and He stands with me.

9. Oceans—Hillsong United

Who doesn’t get the chills when listening to this song? A++

10. 10,000 Reasons—Matt Redman

The #1 song of Alley’s heart. This song was the first song to have a deep impact on my heart and soul—and it remains my anthem. 10,000 reasons He loves me. 10,000 reasons I have to love Him. His love will reign for 10,000 years, then forever more. I want to always be singing His praise—worshipping like never before! He is rich in love and slow to anger. His name is great!

BONUS: Yahweh—Rend Collective

A song recently introduced to me, but has fully grown in my heart. Give it a listen!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
