As life goes on, you face more and more good times and bad times. Through those good times and bad times, it is important to turn to scripture. Here is a list of 10 Bible verses that go along with a certain circumstance:

1. When you need rest and peace.

"Come to me, all you who labor and have been burdened, and I will refresh you. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you shall find rest for your souls."

Matthew 11:28-29

2. When you worry.

"Therefore, seek first the kingdom of God and his justice, and all these things shall be added to you as well. Therefore, do not be anxious about tomorrow; for the future day will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its evil."

Matthew 6:33-34

3. When you are lonely or fearful.

"For, even if I should walk in the midst of the shadow of death, I will fear no evils. For you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they have given me consolation."

Psalm 23:4

4. When you are discouraged.

"I sought the Lord, and he heeded me, and he carried me away from all my tribulations. Approach him and be enlightened, and your faces will not be confounded."

Psalm 34:5-6

5. When God seems far away.

"You have known my sitting down and my rising up again. You have understood my thoughts from afar. My path and my fate, you have investigated. And you have foreseen all my ways. For there is no word in my tongue. Behold, O Lord, you have known all things: the newest and the very old. You have formed me, and you have placed your hand over me."

Psalm 139:2-5

6. When you feel sorrowful.

"Why are you sad, my soul? And why do you disquiet me? Hope in God, for I will still confess to him: the salvation of my countenance, and my God, My soul had been troubled within myself. Because of this, I will remember you from the land of the Jordan and from Hermon, from the little mountain."

Psalm 42:6-7

7. When you want courage.

"Behold, I am instructing you. Be strengthened, and be steadfast. Do not dread, and do not fear. For the Lord your God is with you in all things, wherever you may go."

Joshua 1:9

8. When looking for joy.

"Therefore, clothe yourselves like the elect of God: holy and beloved, with hearts of mercy, kindness, humility, modesty, and patience."

Colossians 3:12

9. When you think of investments.

"Then Jesus, gazing at him, loved him, and he said to him, 'One thing is lacking to you. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.'"

Mark 10:21

10. When you need to know God's will for you.

"Have confidence in the Lord with all your heart, and do not depend upon your own prudence. In all your ways, consider him, and he himself will direct your steps."

Proverbs 3:5-6

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.
