11 Bible Verses To Get You Through Midterms
Audrey Whelan

We've all been there. Your to-do list is a mile long, you keep adding assignments and responsibilities to your planner (in barely readable chicken scratch), and you're trying to stay sane amidst the whirlwind of midterms and projects. It's important to keep our eyes up as we make our way toward the highly coveted responsibility-free week that is spring break. Keep calm, say a prayer, sip some coffee, and keep on moving. Here are some verses from the "Bible" to help you get through midterms.


James 1:2-4

"Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything."

Luke 21:19

"Stand firm, and you will win life."

Psalm 94:19

"When anxiety was great within me, your consolation brought me joy."

Matthew 11:28-30

“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.”

Romans 8:28

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose."

Psalm 119:143

"Trouble and distress have come upon me, but your commands give me delight."

Psalm 55:22

"Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken."

1 Corinthians 16:13

"Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong."

Psalm 16:8

"I keep my eyes always on the LORD. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken."

Psalm 56:3-4

"When I am afraid, I put my trust in you. In God, whose word I praise— in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals do to me?"

Proverbs 3:5-6

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all ways acknowledge Him and He shall make your paths straight."

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.

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.
