After the third time hitting the snooze button, your alarm goes off again. You can't hit the snooze button again or you'll be behind schedule. But you take a moment to lay there in bed to think about the long list of what you have to do today. You also know this is going to be a hard day. But you take a deep breath and go forward with your day.
Ever have one of those days? Where you know before you even get out of bed, you know it is going to a rough, hard, and a long never ending day. You've got three exams to study for, a paper due tomorrow, and a pile of laundry to do. You are so stressed out and overwhelmed, you wish you had more hours in the day to do everything you need to get done. You go through the day just trying to get by. Sometimes those hard days can turn into a hard week. Those hard days are so inevitable. But you can make those hard days a little bit better through God and these Bible verses.
