Bible Verse of the Day - Trusting in the Lord Will Keep You Safe

The Bible is an invaluable resource, a guide that can help you face difficult times. The Lord's love and care for you are reflected in the verses. Fear of man can become a trap, but trusting in the Lord will keep you safe. In this article, I'll share three bible verses that I find helpful. If you haven't read them yet, here they are:

Proverbs 15:1

An upright person has an understanding heart. He seeks wisdom. A fool feeds on foolishness. A patient person calms a quarrel. A wise person stays on course. And he heeds rebuke. He is wise because he fears God. He understands the nature of wisdom. The following are some things to keep in mind as you live your life. The following are some examples of how to live by this Bible verse:

Solomon understood that a person's words reveal their thoughts. Those who live in sin and follow religious rituals will find God disapproving. But he will praise those who walk in righteousness. He loves the people who obey him. Even a child loves a parent. That's why the Lord loves the children, no matter how young they are. He has a plan for everyone.

Cast all your anxieties on him

The Bible says that we should "cast all our anxiety on him". It sounds like a simple concept, but there's more to it than that. In fact, it is a part of humility. Casting our anxieties on God is part of the process of humbling ourselves, so that we can better trust him with our lives. In this way, we become free from the burden of our worries and anxieties.

In order to truly trust God with your anxieties, you need to believe that he will take care of your concerns. This is important because worrying is not good for your life. The Bible says that when we trust God with our problems, we will walk in his strength. But how can we do this? Here are some ways to cast our anxieties on Christ:

Have a good conscience

What does it mean to have a good conscience? To have a good conscience, you must have a good idea of God's law and a healthy conception of your own duty. An evil conscience is produced by a man who has an inadequate idea of what is right and wrong, or who does not consider his duty as reaching his heart. A cultivated conscience is a result of a strong idea of God's law.

A good conscience is the result of moral decisions made out of love and faith. It requires faith in Scripture, Tradition, and the Magisterium, and does not involve actual sin. Some decisions may be made in an unworthy manner. Such a person is known as a "sinner."

Having a good conscience

Having a good conscience means not sinning. Even the most moral people are subject to being slandered and picked on. The Bible warns us not to let our conscience become weak by the things that others do. We should have a good conscience, because our conscience is the mirror of our soul, so to speak. However, having a good conscience is not easy. In fact, many people struggle with it every day.

According to the Bible, the conscience is the spotlight of moral judgment. It is an independent judge that pronounces verdicts based on our own understanding of right and wrong. The Bible mentions God in Romans 1:19-20 and Romans 2:14-15, but we shouldn't let our consciences are influenced by the way others see us. Having a good conscience is a powerful tool to fight against evil and put the world to shame.

Bottomline

One of the most powerful ways to use God's power is by focusing on God's ability to move into battle. The author of the book The Invisible War, Donald Grey Barnhouse, uses the metaphor of a man of war to describe God's ability to move into battle. This powerful language tells us that God has the power to stir us up and be Man of War in our battles. As a result, this powerful book is a must read for all who want to see God's hand in battle.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
