7 Bible Verses to Calm Your Anxiety
Brittany Breslin

Life is stressful, hectic and, at times, overwhelming. If you are like me, the smallest things can set you into a "turtles all the way down" spiral and in that moment, there isn't a whole lot proving to actually help. What then? What if nothing helps? What if you feel like you're in it all alone? No one actually understands. Well, maybe we just aren't looking in the right place.

What if instead of bottling it all up, we pour it out to someone who never leaves our side? What if instead of sitting in the dark, we turn to someone who will never fail to be our light?

In a challenging season of my life, these 7 verses were brought to my attention allowing me to find peace in God's Word. Maybe you are reading this because you are also in a challenging season of your life. My prayer is to help you find peace through the Word of God because one thing I have found in way more than 7 verses, is that God will never leave your side. He will protect you and give you peace, even in the midst of a storm. He has shown me that I am never alone, and neither are you. He is out there fighting for you. Need proof? Check out some of the verses below.

1. Romans 8:18

2. Matthew 6:34

3. Isaiah 43:2

4. Psalms 94:19

5. Matthew 19:26

6. Romans 15:13

7. Exodus 14:14

Sometimes, the stress can be overbearing or maybe it feels like you just keep stumbling and, eventually, you're just going to fall. Maybe you have already fallen? What if everything is coming at you all at once; it really is just one situation right after the other? Just remember you aren't doing any of it alone. Let God be your light. Let Him be your peace. The next time you feel like the stress or anxiety is just too much to take handle, I would encourage you to give it all to God. Let Him fight for you.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
