15 Bible Verses For Anyone Carrying A Burden That Seems Too Big
Megan Coltharp

In your twenties, most of life is completely unexpected. What will you eat for dinner? How long can you survive on $0.30? When's the next time you'll get to sleep?

Let's just admit it -- college is hard and we are all just trying to do the best we can.

Every now and then, it seems like God has decided to give us a full load. He never gives us more than we can bear, but Lord it sure seems like it is unbearable sometimes.

Here are fifteen bible verses for anyone who feels like the burden is too great right now:

1. For nothing will be impossible with God. - Luke 1:37

2. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. - Phillippians 4:13
3. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. - Proverbs 3:5
4. Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. - Philippians 4:6
5. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose. - Romans 8:28
6. But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in Him. - Jeremiah 17:7
7. When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. - Psalm 56:3
8. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in Him and He will do this. - Psalm 37:59.
9. In you, Lord my God, I put my trust. - Psalm 25:11
10. What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us? - Romans 8:31
11. Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you. - 1 Peter 5:7
12. Can anyone of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? - Matthew 6:27
13. Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up. - Proverbs 12:25
14. I sought the Lord, and he answered me; he delivered me from all my fears. - Psalm 34:4
15. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. - Isaiah 40:29


No matter what burden in your life seems too big to carry, put your trust in God. No matter what is happening, "When you go through deep waters, He will be with you" (Isaiah 43:2).

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
