Random Songs

I've been thinking a lot about music recently (especially Spiritual music) and the impact that it has on my life. If someone had asked me 5 years ago about my favorite artists/music, I probably would've spat something out about "actual music/mainstream/blah blah blah". 

I was somewhat rebellious when it came to liking certain artists, just because of their popularity/or who I knew liked them. I was probably like most high-schoolers.

However, this all changed around 2 years ago. I started listening to different "Christian Rock" or "Spiritual" music, and it changed my life. Not so much in the cliche "Come-to-Jesus" way (in a sense), but more in the sense of grounding my spirituality and helping me remember that day who I am, how God is involved in my life, and not to let that change.

Anyways, here are 3 songs that I have been listening a lot to recently. They have inspired me.




Vocal Point - Nearer My God To Thee (Probably more well-known in Utah)


Michael W. Smith - One More Time
I love this song.


Michael W. Smith - Rise
This is one of the most inspirational songs I have ever heard.

I hope you find these songs to be inspirational! Whether or not you like them, ask yourself "What does my music say about me? Do for me? Why am I listening to what I am?" And I'm not saying this in a religious This-music-is-better-than-yours way, but as a reflection question.
