Usually, I am not one that jams out to praise or worship songs on a day to day basis. However, with it being a slow day at work I decided to turn on my iHeart Radio favorites playlist.

This is the first song that plays and, normally, I would just hit the next button. Today, on the other hand, something just said, “you need this”. It isn’t an overly powerful song and it is one that most people know but something just told me to let it play.

Now I wasn’t in a bad mood or cranky or anything, just a lil bored and a lil tired. The tiredness probably stems from the boredness. Yet, listening to this song just put me in a better mood, and I’m not necessarily completely sure why.

All I can tell you is that our brains may not realize how much our hearts really need something. As a christian, this something tends to be a reminder, big or small, that we are never alone and that good things are to come, no matter what we may be going through.

There is a reason why songs like this are described as “uplifting”.
