16 Inspirational Bible Verses For When You Need Encouragement and Strength

When we go through struggles in life, God wants us to go to him and talk to him about it. He even wants us to turn to the bible for answers. So, I have compiled a list of inspirational bible verses for you to read when you need encouragement and strength.

Proverbs 18:10 - The name of the LORD is a strong fortress; the godly run to him and are safe.

Proverbs 3:5 - Trust in the LORD with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding.

Proverbs 3:6 - Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take.

1 Peter 5:7 - Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

Isaiah 12:2 - See, God has come to save me. I will trust in him and not be afraid. The LORD GOD is my strength and my song; he has given me victory.

Isaiah 26:3 - You will keep in peace, all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you.

Isaiah 40:29 - He gives power to the weak and strength to the powerless.

Isaiah 40:31 - But those who trust in the LORD will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint.

Isaiah 41:10 - Don't be afraid, for I am with you. Don't be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.

Psalm 23:4 - Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close behind me.

Psalm 28:7 - The LORD is my strength and shield.I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving.

Psalm 28:8 - The LORD gives his people strength. He is a safe fortress for his anointed king.

Psalm 46:1 - God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble.

Ephesians 6:10 - A final word: Be strong in the LORD and in his mighty power.

Philippians 4:13 - For I can do everything through Christ, who gives me strength.

Hebrews 13:5 - Don't love money; be satisfied with what you have. For God has said, "I will never fail you. I will never abandon you."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo

Summer: a time (usually) free from school work and a time to relax with your friends and family. Maybe you go on a vacation or maybe you work all summer, but the time off really does help. When you're in college you become super close with so many people it's hard to think that you won't see many of them for three months. But, then you get that text saying, "Hey, clear your schedule next weekend, I'm coming up" and you begin to flip out. Here are the emotions you go through as your best friend makes her trip to your house.
