7 Bible Verses to Calm Your Anxiety
Brittany Breslin

Life is stressful, hectic and, at times, overwhelming. If you are like me, the smallest things can set you into a "turtles all the way down" spiral and in that moment, there isn't a whole lot proving to actually help. What then? What if nothing helps? What if you feel like you're in it all alone? No one actually understands. Well, maybe we just aren't looking in the right place.

What if instead of bottling it all up, we pour it out to someone who never leaves our side? What if instead of sitting in the dark, we turn to someone who will never fail to be our light?

In a challenging season of my life, these 7 verses were brought to my attention allowing me to find peace in God's Word. Maybe you are reading this because you are also in a challenging season of your life. My prayer is to help you find peace through the Word of God because one thing I have found in way more than 7 verses, is that God will never leave your side. He will protect you and give you peace, even in the midst of a storm. He has shown me that I am never alone, and neither are you. He is out there fighting for you. Need proof? Check out some of the verses below.

1. Romans 8:18

Sometimes, the stress can be overbearing or maybe it feels like you just keep stumbling and, eventually, you're just going to fall. Maybe you have already fallen? What if everything is coming at you all at once; it really is just one situation right after the other? Just remember you aren't doing any of it alone. Let God be your light. Let Him be your peace. The next time you feel like the stress or anxiety is just too much to take handle, I would encourage you to give it all to God. Let Him fight for you.

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.
