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.
