12 Bible Verses For The Struggling Person
Anastasia Lapteva

If you are going through a season of worry, anxiety, fear, sorrow, or unrest in your life - you are not alone. Many people, myself included, are experiencing this right now; but this morning when my body woke me up at 5 am because I was too anxious to sleep, instead of continuing to my anxiety attack by trying to force it down, I cracked open my Bible.

In those silent hours of the morning before dawn, I experienced an overwhelming feeling of serenity for having just woken up due to an anxiety attack in my sleep. I believe there is strength in numbers and why not have your one other be God when you’re feeling lost or alone? I have compiled a list of 12 Bible verses you can turn to if you, too, are living through pain, anxiety, insecurity - whatever it may be. Ha, get it? 12? Because of the 12 disciples? Well, just check out the list:

1. My personal favorite: 1 Peter 5:7

2. 2 Corinthians 5:17

3. John 10:10

4. Philippians 4:6-7

5. Psalm 23:3

6. John 14:27

7. Matthew 6:25

8. Isaiah 41:10

9. 1 Samuel 16:7

10.Ephesians 2:8

11. Jeremiah 29:12-13

12. Romans 8:18

When I was learning how to talk, I was taught both Portuguese and English at the same time. In elementary school, I started taking mandatory Spanish classes, which I did well in because of my knowledge of Portuguese. Then in high school, on top of taking Spanish, I also started taking French. Now, in college, already fluent in English and Portuguese, I'm in the process of becoming fluent in Spanish, and I have a standard high school level understanding of French.

I am without a doubt one of those people who refuses to start decorating for Christmas or listen to Christmas music until after Thanksgiving.
