If you're anything like me you've just finished school and you're super excited to be on break. You'll be able to sleep in, spend time with friends and family, and have more free time to just have fun. However, there's something about when you just get out for school that makes it feel like it isn't quite time for Christmas yet. Well here are 11 Bible verses to put you in the holiday spirit.

1. Isaiah 9:6

"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called WonderfulCounselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

2. Romans 15:13

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit.

3. Luke 2:14

“Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace among those with whom he is pleased!”

4. James 1:17

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change."

5. Isaiah 7:1

"Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign. Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel."

6. Philippians 2:5-7

"Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men."

7. John 8:42

"Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and I am here. I came not of my own accord, but he sent me."

8. Luke 2:20

"And the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all they had heard and seen, as it had been told them."

9. Luke 2:16

"And they went with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby lying in a manger."

10. John 1:14

"The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."

11. Galatians 4:4-5

"God sent His Son, born of a woman, born under the law, to redeem those under the law, that we might receive adoption to sonship."

I hope these help put you in the holiday spirit. I encourage you to enjoy the time you have with your friends and family, but remember the reason for the season. Enjoy your time together.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register.

Like I said, it's a big hassle.

So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
