7 Songs for Easter Weekend

Hello Everyone!

Easter week is just crazy for me, and I mean that in the very best way. Jesus is seriously the best, and He’s showing me that more and more. I love this time of contemplation and celebration for all He did. The literal Son of God died for me, He took my punishment, He took the weight of my sin and bore it on his own shoulders so I can live in perfect communion with him for eternity. I’m continually humbled and awestruck. It’s Good Friday and I put together a mini playlist with some songs for this weekend. Some are for today, to remember the Cross, some are for Sunday, when we celebrate new life and the joy of our Savior, Jesus.

1. Royal Blood by Rend Collective

This was won upon the cross
This was written on his scars
This has made us conquerors
Nothing but Your royal blood

2. Blessed Redeemer by Casting Crowns

Blessed Redeemer, precious Redeemer
Seems now I see Him on Calvary’s tree

3. Should’ve Been Me by Citizen Way

Leaves me saying thank God
For this heart you changed
This soul you raised
My God for taking my place

4. How Can It Be by Lauren Daigle

You gave Your life
To give me mine
You say that I am free
How can it be

5. Messiah/ You’re Beautiful by Phil Wickham

I see You there hanging on a tree
You bled and then you died and then you rose again for me
Now You are sitting on Your heavenly throne
Soon we will be coming home
You’re beautiful

6. Drops In The Ocean by Hawk Nelson

If you could count the times I’d say you are forgiven
It’s more than the drops in the ocean

7.  Best News Ever by MercyMe

What if I were the One to tell you
That the work’s already been done
It’s now good news
It’s the best news ever

 

Have an amazing weekend,  celebrating Jesus!

Happy almost Thanksgiving to all my fellow American followers! It seems pretty crazy, I feel like summer just ended! I’m very busy this week baking and preparing for Thanksgiving so I’m just sharing a quick playlist! I don’t always listen to music while going to sleep, sometimes I end up listening to the lyrics and not sleeping. Every so often I’ll put on a short playlist with my favorite relaxing, quiet music and it lulls me off to sleep. Here are some of my favorite peaceful songs that are great to fall asleep to:

Never Walk Alone by Rend Collective

If This Is What It Takes by Shawn Mendes

Starmaker by Phil Wickham

My Revival by Lauren Daigle

Through All of It

Over and Over Again by I Am They

7 Song Spotify Shuffle!

 

Hello Everyone!

I have been extremely MIA lately. Summer has kept me so busy. From vacations, projects like painting the house and cleaning/organizing to spending time with friends before we all go our separate ways in the fall, blogging has kind taken a back burner. I know as we head back into the school year I’ll be back to a consistent schedule in the meantime, I am back with a new 7 song playlist!

I had wanted to post another 7 song playlist today, but I wasn’t feeling inspired with the one I had planned. So I thought it would be fun to shuffle my Spotify and share the first seven songs instead!

 I wish you wouldn’t say things/ that you don’t mean…

Burn Like a Star by Rend Collective

Burn like a star light a fire in our hearts/ For Your glory/ For You Fame…

Make You Stay by The Girl and the Dreamcatcher

The story of my life/ I take her home/ I drive all night just to keep her warm….

7 Songs for When You Feel Stressed

Hello Everyone!
It’s no secret that in today’s society stress is a big problem. Everyone faces times when they just feel pulled in a million directions. Whenever I feel this way, the best way to quiet down is to turn on some quiet, restful music and just relax, letting the words soak in. I put together a 7 song playlist of all the songs that I like to listen to when I need to chill a little.

A Little Too Much

Sometimes it all gets a little to much, but you’ve gotta realize that soon the fog will clear up…

Life can be rough sometimes, sometimes you feel like you are alone and all the stress comes and piles up. This song really speaks to that, besides the guitar in the beginning is so gentle and relaxing.

7 Christmas Songs

Christmas music can to tend to repetitive, so I like to find different arrangements and takes on classic carols as well as original songs. Here are some of my favorites!

Hope Was This Night   by Sidewalk Prophets

My 7 Current Suggested Songs

Hello Everyone!

There are so many different ways to stream music nowadays, I thought it would be fun to shuffle my YouTube playlist and share the first 7 songs that came up. Some are upbeat, some are slow, some are Christian some aren’t, so it’s a pretty varied mix!

1. Christ in Me by Jeremy Camp. This song is amazing!! The lyrics truly speak to my heart, I just love it!

7 Songs For When You Feel Down

So school has started and life is back in its swing. That can be good and bad. The thing about school, extracurricular activities and such are that people can be mean. That  is just a reality. You have probably come home feeling like this before:

Whether you are being bullied by in person, cyber bullying or your friends ditched you. Maybe no one is being mean, maybe you just feel down because everyone else seems to have their life together an you don’t. No matter what sometimes you come home feeling bad/sad/depressed. I have always found that when I feel sad I listen to music. That’s why I made this playlist, so next time you feel bad, put this on and turn up your music real loud and let the words soak in.

Beautiful by MercyMe

No matter what anyone says you are loved by the God of the Universe. He has made you holy and you are beautiful in the eyes of the only one who really matters, Jesus Christ.

He Knows by Jeremy Camp

God knows,he knows exactly what you are going through. Jesus came to earth, he knows and has experienced the harshness and the pain. Go to God, he understands.

Hello My Name Is by Matthew West

If you feel, worthless, pointless and like you should just disappear, remember, you a child of the One True King. He has set you free and in Him is a new life, you aren’t the person you used to be.

Unusual by Francesca Battestelli

Standing up for what you believe in is really not that  fun sometimes. But just remember, If you are being rejected an cast aside because of Jesus, then who cares what the people are saying. Jesus is all that matters. So stand out. Be unusual.

Gold by Britt Nicole

We are constantly looking around us, comparing ourselves to others. Even if everyone else treats you like you are a heap of trash, or ignores you, just remember that in the eyes of God you are worth more than gold, and no one can take that away from you.

Shake it Off by Taylor Swift

Though this isn’t a Christian song, I love the what it saying. People are always going to be haters and do nasty stuff. Just shake it off and move on.

Sold Out by Hawk Nelson

Last but not least, remember that we are not here to live for ourselves, it is all God. So be sold out for Him. You are living for Christ, so don’t let anyone distract you from that.
