10 Bible Verses To Get You Through Exams
Project Inspired

The famous exam time is here folks! Here are some Bible verses I love to refer to when I am very stressed out and cramming for exams.

1. For when nothing seems to be going right:

"For I know well the plans I have in mind for you, says the Lord, plans to give your welfare, not for woe, plans to give you a future full of hope." Jeremiah 29:11

2. For when you can't get over your anxiety:

"Have no anxiety at all, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, make your requests known to God." Philippians 4:6-7

3. For when you need the motivation to do that seemingly pointless assignment:

"And whatever you do, in word or in deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." Colossians 3:17

4. For when you need some courage:

"...Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9

5. For when you need to be reminded of His amazing and perfect work in you:

"I am confident of this, that the one who began a good work in you will continue to complete it until the day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:6

6. For when you need some extra strength to keep studying or wake up early for your 8 a.m. exam:

"I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13

7. For when you probably could have done better, but you need to remember you're not perfect:

"Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and constraints, for the sake of Christ: for when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:10

8. For when you need some shelter for the days ahead:

"God is our refuge and strength, and ever-present help in distress." Psalm 46:1

9. For when you need some extra support:

"What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?" Romans 8:31

10. For when you can finally relax:

"Return, my soul, to your rest; the Lord has been good to you." Psalm 116:7

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Many people think that this show is the best thing they've ever watched and others won't bother watching it because they know they'll get hooked. And yes, I know many people have written about this show before, but I couldn't resist. I could re-watch every season multiple times to the point where I can almost quote an entire scene. Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

5 Ways To Bring Positivity Into Your Life When All You Want To Do Is Drown In Self-Pity

It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
