Everyone goes through anxious times and needs a little reassurance. God provides constant help and advice throughout scripture to show the way through these rough times. Below are 10 are my favorite verse to calm me down during anxious times.

1. Matthew 11:28

In the middle of all the mess and craziness of life God provides the rest we all need without any expectations

2. Colossians 3:15

when everything around you seems to be falling apart you have the peace that God brings already inside of you and that is something to be thankful for, always.

3. Exodus 14:14

the amazing thing about God is that he doesn't want anything from us in return for his protection. This is something to cling to in your weakest and most vulnerable moments, knowing that he is fighting for you in the midst of the mess.

4. Psalm 55:22

No matter what is on your mind, he will take care of it. No questions asked.

5. Romans 8:38-39

You can do absolutely NOTHING that will make him stop loving you. Ever.

6. Psalm 23:4

There is no trial that you will go through that he will not be right there with you. Even when you seem lost and forgotten, he is there.

7. Philippians 4:6

Talking to God is something that is often taken for granted but can offer peace like none other. Taking the time to sit and chat can show another perspective to help solve the situation.

8. Proverbs 3:5

Even when you think that you know whats best, you don't but God does.

9. Psalm 56:3

Fear is powerful but so is God. By putting your trust in the Lord you're not alone in any situation.

10. Matthew 6:34

Don't waste today by worrying about tomorrow. God has given you today to live, so live.

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.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. 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.
