12 Scriptures To Encourage And Guide You
Amber Bauerle

Sometimes everyone needs a little help and encouragement, and what better place to get those words than from the Word of God? None, in my opinion. Here are a few scriptures to remind yourself of and to speak and pray over yourself or anyone in your life.

1. 2 Timothy 1:7

This is my all-time favorite scripture. When I was little and scared of the dark my dad would tell me to speak this verse over myself, and even today when I feel afraid I repeat these words over to myself and feel encouraged.

2. Psalm 119:34

3. 1 Peter 3:3-4

4. Proverbs 15:1

This is a good one to remind yourself of when you're really feeling like telling that certain person off. I should probably remind myself of this scripture a little more.

5. Ephesians 4:29


6. Psalm 46:1

This is a really nice reminder that God is always present even when we don't feel Him.

7. Proverbs 11:16

8. Colossians 3:17

This is one of the most important, in my opinion.

9. Proverbs 16:9


This is a great reminder when we're wondering what our next step should be. God reminds us that it is alright for us to make a plan, but we must leave room for Him to guide us.

10. Romans 12:9-10


11. Psalm 91:14


12. Ephesians 4:2


There are countless scriptures in the Bible to help you through any situation. These are a few of my favorites. I hope you can be encouraged by them.

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.
