Although college is very fun and exciting, it can often be very stressful. It is easy to feel overwhelmed with school, work, and friends pulling you in different directions. Here are 10 Bible verses that can help get through the week:

1. Psalm 91:4


“He will cover you with His feathers, and under his wings, you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.”

2. Matthew 6:34

“Therefore, don’t worry about tomorrow, because tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”

3. Romans 16:20

“The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus is with you.”

4. Proverbs 3:5-6

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

5. Philippians 4:6-7

“Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

6. John 14:27

“Peace I leave it you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.”

7. Psalm 55:22

“Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.”

9. Psalm 56:3
