7 Scripture Quotes For The Overwhelmed Student

There comes a time in every student’s life when you feel overwhelmed, you're not sure about your major and you're in need of some reassurance. Being away from home can be tough, especially in times of crisis. Your friends and family are always a great support system when you need that second opinion about something, but no one can truly put you at ease like God can. God’s words of life always give you the extra boost and motivation to push forward and succeed. When you face a difficult challenge in life, do not fear, simply listen to God and what he has in store for you.

When you experience conflict:

“Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome with good.” Romans 12:21

In times of disappointment:

“When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad, consider: God has made the one as well as the other.” Ecclesiastes 7:14

When you need encouragement:

“An anxious heart weighs a man down, but a kind word cheers him up.” Proverbs 12:25

When it’s hard to forgive:

“Forgive as the LORD forgave you.” Colossians 3:13

Through hard times in friendship:

“A friend loves at all times.” Proverbs 17:17

When frustration takes over:

“A righteous man may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all.” Psalm 34:19

When all you need is some guidance:

“The LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.” Proverbs 2:6

When times get hard, it seems easiest to just run away from all your worries, but the Lord will always help us get through them. Always remember, “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him” Nahum 1:7. There will always be someone who is experiencing the same problems you are. Talking to them and taking a second to thank God for your many blessings will help you push through.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
