We all have days where nothing seems to go right. Instead of crying, eating ice cream, and listening to sad music we can take a more biblical approach.The next time your day is nothing but bad news sit down with a few of these verses and offer up a prayer to the Lord.

1. James 1:2-5

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers, when you are involved in various trials, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.But you must let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking nothing. Now if any of you lacks wisdom, he should ask God, who gives to everyone generously without a rebuke, and it will be given to him."

2. Romans 5:3-4

"More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope."

3. John 16:33

"More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope."

4. Romans 8:28-29

"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose for them. For God knew his people in advance, and he chose them to become like his Son, so that his Son would be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters."

5. Psalm 9:9

"The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble."

6. Nahum 1:7

"The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him."

7. 2 Corinthians 1:4

"He comforts us whenever we suffer. That is why whenever other people suffer, we are able to comfort them by using the same comfort we have received from God."

8. 1 Peter 5:7

"Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you."

9. Psalm 50:15

"and call upon me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify me."

10. 1 Thessalonians 5:18

"give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you."

Never forget that the Lord cares for us immensely. He loves us more than anything in the world. Even when our day is rough, our Lord is still there for us. He will never leave us, and he will always be ready to listen. Come to him on your bad days and i assure you things will brighten up.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
