7 Bible Verses To Inspire You This Finals Week
@biblesandcoffee

Take a few minutes to spend some time with Jesus. Allow these promises to refresh your mind, body, and spirit and encourage you on this upcoming finals week.

1. Proverbs 3:25-26

God urges us to seek security in Him. He will protect us from the wickedness and fear that surrounds us. There is no need to be fearful of a grade. Our grades don’t define who we are, only God defines us as His children.

2. Matthew 6:33-34

Personally, I struggle with always being worried about future plans or things I have coming up in the week that I am not focused on what is in front of me. God calls us to place our worries on Him so that He can provide us with everything we need.


3. Daniel 10:19

Here, Daniel had been given a vision of times of war and hardship soon to come. Daniel was frightened by this vision, but the messenger’s hand calmed his fears. God can heal us when we are hurt, provide peace when we are troubled, and strengthen us when we are weak. All we have to do is pray to God and willingly ask for His guidance.

4. Philippians 3:13-14

This verse holds relevance to anything we do that is holding us back from God. Our past is in the past, and God doesn’t care about it. What He cares about is that we push it behind us and strain to live a life in His love. Grades do not matter to God, what matters is that we rely on Him in our time of need.

5. John 14:27

God commands us to not be troubled or afraid. He doesn’t suggest it or advise it, He COMMANDS us. We should not allow worldly things to diminish the heavenly peace that God has gifted to us freely.


6. Psalm 34:19

We are assured that we will face difficult times and struggles. This life God has commanded us to live will not be a breeze, but no matter how far beaten down, lost, or lonely we feel, God will rescue us every time.


7. Colossians 3:23-24

God desires for us to work diligently in everything we do and do it in a way that will glorify Him. God wants us to try our hardest at everything we do. In doing so, God promises us the inheritance of Heaven.

Throughout this finals week, remember that God loves you and His plans are greater than anything we could imagine for ourselves. I pray that each of you is encouraged and motivated by this article. Now go out and ROCK THOSE FINALS!!

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

Why AI-Generated Music Threatens Human Creativity

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.

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.
