The Perfect Worship Playlist For The Hopeless & Discouraged

Life is all about seasons. The good news is that seasons change, but what do we do when we are in a challenging season? What can we do when we are feeling discouraged and hopeless? My answer is always praise and worship. That is why I have curated this playlist for when you are feeling hopeless and discouraged. 

 When we get into a posture of worship and lift praises to our Father, it shifts our perspective and transforms our attitudes. That is why it is so powerful when we are weary or discouraged. 

These songs are some of the ones I turn to when I am struggling to find hope. They will point you back to the ultimate source of hope, and they will transform your outlook on your circumstances as you begin to feel renewed and refreshed in the presence of our Father!

Christmas Worship Music Playlist + Our Favorite Christmas Bible Verses

I love Christmas. I love the Advent season, and it’s sweet reminders that we have a Savior who chose to come down from His throne to be born as a vulnerable baby so that He could eventually pay a price that was too high for us to pay on our own. I love a season dedicated to remembering that Jesus came to make way for us to be adopted and set free from all that would bing us.

I love Christmas. Christmas music is another story. I can be a bit of a scrooge when it comes to Christmas music, especially the classics. They make me sad. I think it is because we lost a beloved grandparent right before Christmas one year growing up, and maybe that just taught my child brain to be melancholy when the classics come on.

I may not be a fan of most classics, but I love worship music. So I combined a list of mostly nontraditional and more modern Christmas worship songs for anyone else who is not as into those old school songs. Even if you love the classics, this might be a nice change to your Christmas music rotation.

(My list does include two classics, but they are beautiful and do not induce feelings of despair.)

I also added some verses that came to mind as I listened to each song.

Creating A Daily Worship Time - July Worship Playlist & Prayer Guide

I LOVE praise and worship. I am a big believer that your experience with it corporately at church on Sundays is a reflection of your private praise and worship time. 

I pick 4 to 5 songs that feel relevant to my current circumstances and create a playlist that I listen to for a few weeks. I love picking songs with truths I struggle to believe or wrap my head around and playing them until I feel like my soul believes the words I am declaring through them. 

 These playlists are a ongoing series here at A Love Worth Living For.

How To Create A Daily Worship and Prayer Time - June Worship Playlist & Prayer Guide

I LOVE praise and worship. I am a big believer that your experience with it corporately at church on Sundays is a reflection of your private praise and worship time. 

Lately, I have been trying to focus on better hosting the presence of God in my home. It is important to me that Judah grow up experiencing the Father through the day to day details and actions of his father and me. 

So we have been spending the first hour or so of the morning together listening to worship music and saying a little prayer together. I pray, and he contributes a few “da da da's” and “buhbye’s.” 

I pick 4 to 5 songs that feel relevant to my current circumstances and create a playlist that we listen to for a few weeks. I love picking songs with truths I struggle to believe or wrap my head around and playing them until I feel like my soul believes the words I am declaring through them. 

 These playlists will be a new ongoing series. Members of our community get pdf guides to accompany the playlist. If that interests you then know you are of course invited to join our community of thousands of praying women below!
