Yesterday was hard. I was so stressed about eleventy-million different things: finding a house, finding a job, getting packed for the move, getting the house clean for Bible study, etc. But one thing I noticed yesterday was that I was really in the mood to sing. Since I was in a not-so-good state of mind, I figured that praise music might be the way to go. Plus, I really enjoy singing it.
When I got home from work, I had a lot of cleaning to do, but before I dove in, I sat down and made a Spotify worship playlist. I love Spotify. I feel like they do a good job of keeping the commercials to a bare minimum, they have an amazing selection to chose from, and they have folders so you can organize different playlists with exactly the songs you want on there.
When I made my playlist, I was really going for the NEEDTOBREATHE sound. I love that band and enjoy them and similar artists. This is what my playlist ended up looking like when I was finished:

I spent all night cleaning and packing. I was exhausted, but singing these songs from the top of my lungs while I worked made the experience exponentially better!

What's your favorite worship song or band right now? If you don't listen to worship music, what type of music do you like?
I recently got 17 Songs of Worship and it's on repeat in our car! My kids are loving learning the words and I am loving the vibe of worship music all the time.:)
ReplyDeleteAww :) yay!
DeleteLove these, Kristin! I have been super into Bethel Music, Hillsong, and All Sons & Daughters lately. :) And thanks for the reminder, I like to listen to worship music throughout the day, but I forgot to turn it on this morning. And could feel my patience quickly dwindling. Thank you for the reminder to restart.
ReplyDeleteFor a while, I got tired of worship music because they played the same thing on the radio over and over again, but thankfully, I am back into it. I feel like there is better variety than there used to be :)
DeleteI really love Rend Collective! My Lighthouse makes me so happy.
ReplyDeleteI know! I feel like I'm dancing around in the ocean when I hear that song ;)
DeleteThis is a great list! I don't listen to many worship songs normally but I always love it when I do.
