8 Bible Verses For The Stressed Out College Student

Take a minute, put that book down and go outside for a minute. Us college students deal with the stress of exams, studying, and homework, while juggling work, friends, and sleep. Opening a Bible might seem "lame" and you might get judged, but it will take some weight off your shoulders. It'll give you hope that this stress will go away one day.

1. Psalm 16:8 - "I have set the Lord continually before me; Because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken."

This meaning, with the Lord by your side, nothing will break you. You can get through anything you set your mind to.

2. Exodus 33:14 - "And He said, 'My presence shall go with you, and I will give you rest.'"

With the Lord by your side, He will give you rest, and all the stress will go away in the future.

3. 2 Samuel 22:7 - "In my distress I called upon the Lord, Yes I cried to my God; And from His temple, He heard my voice, And my cry for help came into His ears."

He understands you're in distress, and He is there for you to talk about your problems, stress and everything above. Just talking to Him will help.

4. Philippians 4:6-7 - "Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, shall guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."

This means He hears your requests, and He is guarding your hearts and minds through it all. You are always heard.

5. Psalm 55:22 - "Cast your burden upon the Lord, and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken."

Tell your problems to the Lord and He will protect you. He will never let you break, and He knows how strong you are and what you can take.

6. Luke 21:19 - "Stand firm, and you will win life."

All this stress and worrying will turn out bright in the ending. Stay strong and you will have a better outcome.

7. Psalm 23:4 - "Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for You are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me."

You have to walk through the dark in order to see the light. In order to do that, you must not be scared. You are never alone, even in the darkest times.

8. John 14:27 - "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."

All your troubles will pass, even if you think they won't. Life moves on, and it is much easier when you have God by your side every step of the way.

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.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
