God's word is powerful.

I am lost without God in my life.

God's word is powerful.
Listening Faithfully

As I come to end my college career I am getting super stressed about what I am going to do the rest of my life and on top of the rest of my life what am I going to do for an internship this upcoming summer. How am i going to pay for my last semester of college, and everything else in my life? All these questions just keep running through my mind.

All I need to do is remember a couple bible verses and keep telling myself these bible verses.

Jeremiah 29:11

"'For I know the plans I have for you,' declares the Lord, 'Plans to prosper you and to not harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.'"


This Bible verse really hits home especially with how I have been feeling about what to do with my life. I need to just realize that no matter how many storms I go through, God is here, HE knows the plans he has for me, HE will not let me fail, and HE wants me to prosper.

“Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you” - 1 Peter 5:7

I need to realize that no matter what goes on in my life God is ALWAYS here to listen to me and will let me cast not only all my anxiety on him, but also let me cast my thoughts to him as well.

I know I post a lot of articles about God and I am sorry for that to the people who aren’t religious.

It took me 23 years to realize that God is here no matter what I am going through in my life, he cares about me and you. YES, I would most definitely be lost without him. There are many ways to connect with God but with how I have been feeling these two bible verses are going to save me. No matter what happens in your life you should realize that God does care and will let you vent your thoughts to him.

"With God all things are possible." -Matthew 19:26

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
