Bible Verses For Teens Overwhelmed By College Decisions

If deciding what to order on a menu seems daunting, then deciding on a college seems even more terrifying. And while choosing a college does come easily for a select few, the majority of us struggle with finding peace in our decisions. We second guess our choices, worry about scholarships, and fear impending deadlines. When surrounded by the chaos of college, it is easy to become overwhelmed and lost. However, we must remember that we do not make this decision alone, because God wants to guide us through the process and towards our future. We simply must look to Him and He will give us the answers we seek.
