8 Verses For Those With Anxiety
Dr. Odd

I get it. Sometimes you walk around just living life, and then all of a sudden you feel like the breath has been sucked from your lungs and has no way of returning. You have those moments of sheer panic and chaos, and you feel like it is all your fault. You feel like you have no one to turn to, but that is definitely not true. The love of our God takes away all of that fear and disarray. Digging deep into the Word helps you to realize that you are never alone.

1."Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight." Proverbs 3:5-6

You cannot do this life alone. Lean onto God and give Him all your worries.

2. "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7

Through prayer and request, God will give you peace of mind.

3. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30

Follow God and he will lighten the weight you carry on your shoulders.

4. "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." John 14:27

Do not worry for God will give you the peace you desperately long for.

5. "Anxiety weighs down the heart, but a kind word cheers it up." Proverbs 12:25

Let every word that comes out be that of a positive nature. Everything is so much easier with a smile.

6. "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." Psalm 23:4

Do not fear the things happening in your life for the Lord will be there to protect you and comfort you.

7. "Cast your cares on the LORD and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken." Psalm 55:22

Give Him all of your worries and He will help you to thrive.

8. "When I am afraid, I put my trust in you." Psalm 56:3

This is a favorite for me. Simply trust in the Lord when you find yourself face-to-face with fear.

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
