4 Bible Verses To Help You Through Finals

With finals week fast approaching, it's easy to get caught up in the rush and stress. Here are a few verses to help you power through and actually keep your sanity.

1. Colossians 3:23

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,"

How great is this?! When we keep our eyes on HIM, and live to please HIM, He will make sure to take care of us, even when we don't necessarily feel it.

2. Matthew 6:26

"Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"

This is by far one of my favorite verses. The Lord takes care of small birds who flay around and make straw nests. Humans on the other hand, stress over everything; being ungrateful and are absolutely FULL of sin, yet He takes care of us! He died on the cross for us! He will for sure take care of us, especially in trials like finals.

3. 1 Peter 5:7

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

When you feel like giving up, give it to God. Stop and pray for strength and He will give it to you. He created the universe and everything we know to be, and will be, and he LOVES YOU! Don't lose sight of that during finals!

4. Isaiah 43:2

"When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze."


He is with you wherever you go, he will not lead you astray.

We can handle anything life throws at us, especially finals, with God's help.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

It's easier than you think.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
