Verses To Get You Through

Let your faith be bigger than your fear.

Verses To Get You Through
Wellesley College

I think at some point in our lives, there will be times when we will all feel a little lost and helpless. Sometimes it is difficult to see past the hardship you're going through and to look at the bigger picture. For me, I find comfort in my faith. Here are some of my favorite Bible verses that give me comfort in times of need, and I hope that you can find comfort in them, too.


When you feel like giving up

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD," plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. - Jeremiah 29:11

When you are going through a break up

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

AND

Jesus replied, "You do not know what I am doing, but someday you will.- John 13:7

When you lose a loved one

For if we live, we live to the Lord, and if we die, we die to the Lord. So then, whether we live or whether we die, we are the Lord’s. - Romans 14:8

When you are feeling worried or anxious

And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to hisspan of life? - Luke 12:25

When you need strength and courage

When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned; the flames will not set you ablaze. - Isaiah 43:2

When you can’t see the greater plan

Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Proverbs. 3:5-6

I keep these bible verses close to me to remind me that I can overcome anything; failures, heartbreak, loss, and even when I need a little reassurance and strength.

Faith is not believing that God can, It's believing that God Will.

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.
