10 Bible Verses For Someone Who Feels Like There Is No Hope
Courtney Prather

Less than a month ago, designer Kate Spade and celebrity chef Anthony Bourdain took their own lives in the same week. The tragic news went viral on the internet. There were mixed reactions towards people's posts, regarding the suicides. Many people tell others that if they are struggling, they should seek help and call a suicide hotline. It made me upset because I think people say that are missing the point. Mental illness is a very difficult battle. It silences people from reaching out because they are afraid of reaching and being silenced even more.

Whether you feel it or not, you are not alone. Your loved ones are here for you, especially the Lord.

Here are 10 Bible verses for anyone struggling:

1. Romans 5:5 - "And hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us."

2. Isaiah 41:10 "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."



3. 2 Corinthians 12:9 - "But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness."


4. Joel 2:25 - "God can restore what is broken and change it into something amazing. All you need is faith."


5. Psalm 41:3 - "The LORD will sustain him upon his sickbed; in his illness, you restore him to health."



6. Philippians 4:6 - "Do not worry about anything: instead, pray about everything."



7. 1 Peter 5:7 - "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."



8. Psalm 46:1 - "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble."


9. Luke 1:37 - "For with God, nothing shall be impossible."



10. Romans 12:12 - "Be joyful in hope, be patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
