20 Bible Verses To Remember In Any Situation
Karns Church of Christ

This time of the semester is especially crazy. This is the time when midterms are in full swing, and the stress level of students is high. The holidays are approaching, and many are either missing spending time with their families, or even perhaps being anxious about what being home again after being away at college will be like.

Whatever the crazy situation, the Bible always centers me. It always gives me strength. And these are the verses I call on and remember consistently.

1. "Don't be afraid. Just believe." Mark 5:36 (NIV)

2. “Don't be afraid, because I'm with you; don't be anxious, because I am your God. I keep on strengthening you; I'm truly helping you. I'm surely upholding you with my victorious right hand." Isaiah 41:10 (ISV)

3.“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 (NIV)

4. “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” Psalm 46:1 (ESV)

5. “Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you.” 1 Peter 5:7 (NLT)

6. “I cried to the LORD in my distress, and He responded to me.” Psalm 120:1 (ISV)

7. “Be strong and courageous. Do not fear or be in dread of them, for it is the LORD your God who goes with you. He will not leave you or forsake you.” Deuteronomy 31:6 (ESV)


8. “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go." Joshua 1:9 (NIV)

9. “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?” Psalm 27:1 (ESV)

10. “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.” Romans 8:28 (NIV)

11. “God will fight the battle for you. And you? You keep your mouths shut!” Exodus 14:14 (The Message.)

12. “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.” 2 Timothy 1:7. (KJV)

13. “The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in Him,” Nahum 1:7 (NIV)

14. “When I am afraid, I put my trust in You.” Psalm 56:3. (NIV)

15. “I can do all this through Him who gives me strength.” Philippians 4:13 (NIV)

16. “I prayed to the LORD, and He answered me. He freed me from all my fears.” Psalm 34:4 (NLT)


17. “When anxiety was great within me, Your consolation brought me joy.” Psalm 94:19 (NIV)

18. “The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemies before you, saying, 'Destroy them!'” Deuteronomy 33:27. (NIV)

19. “The LORD Himself goes before you and will be with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged." Deuteronomy 31:8 (NIV)


20. “I know the LORD is always with me. I will not be shaken, for He is right beside me.” Psalm 16:8. (NLT)

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
