As a junior in college, I often find myself stressing out about the future. I question and question what I want to do with my life and where my purpose comes in at. Sometimes I worry about the unknown future that lies ahead. If only we could get a short glimpse into the future. If only we knew exactly where we would be after graduating college. Unfortunately we cannot see for ourselves, but God can. He knows everything that is going to happen. Whether that is in the next hour, next week, next year, or even in twenty years. He works all things out for our good and we just have to trust that.

Here are ten bible verses when we need that extra reminder.

1. Psalm 32:8

"I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my loving eye on you."

2. 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."

3. Proverbs 19:21

"Many are the plans in a person's heart, but it is the Lord's purpose that prevails."

4. Jeremiah 29:11

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."

5. Isaiah 55:8-9

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord. "As that heavens are higher than the earth so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."

6. Psalms 46:10

"Be still, and know that I am God."

7. Romans 8:28

"And we know that God causes everything to work together for the good of those who love God."

8. Romans 15:13

"I pray that God, the source of hope will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit."

9. Deuteronomy 31:8

"Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; he will neither fail you nor abandon you."

10. Isaiah 41:10

"Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand."

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
