10 Bible Verses To Remind You That God Has A Purpose For Your Life
Abigail Wideman

Life can be hard sometimes, and there are moments when your life may feel like you don’t have a purpose. However, The Lord has made us promises that we have to fall back on whenever we are in a discouraging season of life.

1st Corinthians 2:9

“No eye has seen, no ear heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”

Ecclesiastics 3:3-8

“There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens: a time to be born and a time to die, a time to kill and a time to heal, a time to weep and a time to laugh, a time to mourn and a time to dance, a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them, a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing, a time to search and a time to give puma time to keep and a time to throw away, a time to tear and a time to mend, a time to be silent and a time to speak, a time to love and a time to hate, a time for war and a time for peace.”

Job 42:2

“I know that you can do all things; no purpose of yours can be thwarted”

Matthew 5:13-16

“You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.”

Ecclesiastes 12:13-14

"Here is the conclusion of the matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man. For God, will bring every deed into judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good or evil"

Romans 8:28

“And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”

Isaiah 40:31

“But those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.”

Proverbs 20:5

“The purposes of a person's heart are deep waters, but one who has insight draws them out"

Philippians 2:12-13

"Therefore, my dear friends, as you have always obeyed—not only in my presence but now much more in my absence—continue to work out your salvation with fear and trembling, for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose"

Ephesians 1:11

“It is in Christ we find out who we are and what we are living for.”

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
