Throughout life, especially in college, you will experience stress and overwhelmingness. From classes, to homework/studying, work, internships, being active on campus, and trying to keep a social life, a student’s schedule can be hectic. All of the hours put into bettering your life can really take a toll on your mental and physical health. When I’m feeling really low and lost, I know that I need to find time to worship my Lord. What better way to remind yourself how blessed you are than praising Him and singing? Although singing is not one of my many talents, I will blast my gospel music and shout at the top of my lungs.
