4 Bible Verses To Help You Through Finals
Snagajob

With finals week fast approaching, it's easy to get caught up in the rush and stress. Here are a few verses to help you power through and actually keep your sanity.

1. Colossians 3:23

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,"

How great is this?! When we keep our eyes on HIM, and live to please HIM, He will make sure to take care of us, even when we don't necessarily feel it.

2. Matthew 6:26

" Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?"

This is by far one of my favorite verses. The Lord takes care of small birds who flay around and make straw nests. Humans on the other hand, stress over everything; being ungrateful and are absolutely FULL of sin, yet He takes care of us! He died on the cross for us! He will for sure take care of us, especially in trials like finals.

3. 1 Peter 5:7

"Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."

When you feel like giving up, give it to God. Stop and pray for strength and He will give it to you. He created the universe and everything we know to be, and will be, and he LOVES YOU! Don't lose sight of that during finals!

4. Isaiah 43:2

"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."


He is with you wherever you go, he will not lead you astray.

We can handle anything life throws at us, especially finals, with God's help.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
