10 Bible Verses For When You're Feeling Lonely
Images of the Cross

Sometimes life is just hard. We face many obstacles and challenges and with everything we try to juggle, it’s easy to feel like we’re alone. Facing a big exam, break up or new friendships can be scary. But even when our world seems like it’s crashing in on us or we’re just a little sad, we’re never alone. Here are some uplifting verses that remind us of that.

1. Deuteronomy 31:6

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

2. Isaiah 41:10

"So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."

3. 1 Peter 5:7

"Cast all your anxiety on Him because he cares for you."

4. Psalm 147:3

"He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."

5. Psalm 29:11

"The LORD gives strength to his people; the LORD blesses his people with peace."

6. John 14:27

"Peace I leave with 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. John 16:33

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

8. Psalm 55:22

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

9. Romans 8:31

"What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?"

10. Psalm 23:1

"The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing."

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
