As a college student, I know that each of us goes through many situations and have different experiences throughout our years at a university. We are accompanied by many emotions as we ride our roller coaster through classes, jobs, internships, friendships, relationships, etc. We can always pray and read scripture, as it can help ease and relax us through our daily lives. Here are some Bible verses for the struggling college student.

"So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it."
