Bible Verses For The Second Semester Slump

Second semester is hard, y'all. At this point we have about a month of classes and exams to get through, before we can finally enjoy our summer vacation. When your motivation is at an all-time low, it can be hard to keep pushing through assignments, meetings, and extracurriculars. Here's some of my favorite Bible verses to keep you motivated and comforted by God's grace through the home stretch.

Proverbs 18:10 "The name of the Lord is a fortified tower; the righteous run to it and are safe."

2 Timothy 1:7 "For the spirit God gave us does not make us timid, but gives us power, love and self-discipline."


Psalm 32:8 "I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will counsel you with my eye upon you."


Philippians 4:6-7 “Don’t worry about anything; instead pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all he has done. Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.”


Isaiah 41:10 "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand."


Psalm 16:8 "I keep my eyes always on the Lord. With him at my right hand, I will not be shaken."


1 Peter 5:7 "Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you."


Psalm 120:1 "I call on the Lord in my distress, and he answers me."


Psalm 28:7 "The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him."


John 16:32 "I am not alone, for my Father is with me."


Colossians 1:17 "He is before all things, and in him all things hold together."

May you seek solace in the word of God during this time of stress and obligation. He is there for you always, pushing you to do your best in His honor.

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.
