1 Corinthians 2:5-9, "...so that your faith might not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God...it is not wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are doomed to pass away. But we impart a secret and hidden wisdom of God."

The wisdom of God is more vast than us mere humans could ever imagine. And He is a really swell guy because he wrote down much of his wisdom for us in scripture. The Bible is packed with love, hope, faith, and The Ultimate Reassurance. So instead of reading more of my ramblings, I wanted to dedicate this article and your time to 21 verses that can get you through whatever you may be facing. Whoever may read this draw closer to His Word, to the hope and the glory that is revealed in his Holy text. There is a message in all your mess. You can and will find it.

Christian Boys Vs. Godly Men

It is time to stop settling for the lesser of the two.

Ladies, there is a huge difference between a Christian boy and a Godly man; therefore, it is time to stop settling for the lesser of the two.

So many times I hear girls saying:

“Well, he’s a Christian.”

“He goes to church with me.”

“He listens to Christian music.”

“He went to church camp.”

“He has a favorite bible verse.”

SEE ALSO: What An Attractive Man Looks Like

Well, all of those things are just peachy and there is nothing wrong with doing those things. I mean, they’re all good things to do. But how is his personal relationship with God? How is his prayer life? Does he talk about his relationship with God, with you? Is he truly a follower of the one true God in all aspects of his life? These are some of the characteristics you should be looking for that makes a Godly man.

Ladies, a man will love you great when he loves God greater.

A Godly man will pursue an honest relationship with you. He will be clear of his intentions. A Godly man will worship, pray and passionately praise God with you. Whereas, a Christian boy might open the door for you, a Godly man will open his bible and explore God’s word with you so that you both may grow spiritually, together. While a Christian boy may put on an outward show, a Godly man will live out the love of Jesus daily.

So ladies, are you catching on to this ongoing trend? A Godly man does more because you deserve more.

A Godly man will be a leader. Trust me, I know that in today’s society Godly men are few and far between while Christian boys come in plenty. But you deserve a man who is after God’s heart not just a boy who goes to church. And I know that this Christian boy may seem great and have some really stellar qualities at the time but money and looks fade, whereas, an ongoing love for our savior will not.

The greatest thing a man can do for a woman is to lead her closer to God than himself. (Yes, yes, yes).

SEE ALSO: As Christians, Life Isn't Supposed To Be Hard

So I beg of you, do not settle. Do not settle just because you’re tired of being single, it’s convenient or because you want the relationship your friend has. Single does not equal available and a relationship status does not define you. God uses your season of singleness to prepare you for what is to come. And if you’re dating a Christian boy, he needs to step it up or you need to move on. Wait for a Godly man who is ready to lead you. God’s timing is always better, always. No matter the circumstance. So, do not rush God. (I mean, He is, after all, pretty good at His job). Therefore, turn your full focus to Him and He will direct your path.

“But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33

5 Bible Verses That Will Bring You Comfort

Relying on Him will never steer us wrong.

When I take time to reflect on some of the bad things that have happened in my life, and how low I felt during those times, there is always one constant thing that comes to mind for how I dealt with it. Whether we're talking about traumatic experiences that I may not ever talk about, my grandmother (who is also my role model) passing away, or a breakup that left me feeling worthless and lost, what I did during each of those times turned to God.

Everyone has their own set of beliefs and their own forms of comfort, and for me, that is my relationship with God. I am a Jesus loving Christian, and my faith is genuinely what I believe guides me through my life.

There are a number of ways I connect with God, whether that's going to Church, journaling, praying, listening to worship music, or studying His word. Focusing specifically on God's word, when I go through hard times, I try to find a couple of Bible verses that inspire me, bring me comfort, and give me hope.

Here are five Bible verses that, to me at least, help me in different situations and bring me closer to God when I'm feeling or going through...


Grief: Matthew 5:4

Brittany Creech

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted"

Like I mentioned before, losing my grandma was one of the most painful things I've been through. It's still difficult and still hurts, but around the time it happened, I went through a very rough period of grieving. I actually wrote Matthew 5:4 on my hand every day with a sharpie every single day for a week.

I prayed, prayed, and prayed. I was hoping God would bring me comfort, and He definitely did. I know that no matter what, I can always turn to him for comfort, and that is one of the most reassuring feelings, ever.

Anger: James 1:19-20

Brittany Creech

"My dear brothers and sisters, understand this: Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to anger, for human anger does not accomplish God's righteousness"

Man oh man, I've felt angry throughout my life more times than I'd like to admit. Sometimes over smaller things, other times over "bigger", more substantial issues.

I'm sure everyone can think of a time they've been angry, probably even recently. What's important to remember about anger, though, is that even though it's not always a bad thing to feel this way, it is possible for uncontrolled anger to be especially harmful. James 1:19-20 is so important to refer to and remember in the times we're overcome with this emotion.

Discouraged: Joshua 1:9

Brittany Creech

Haven't I commanded you: be strong and courageous? Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go"

There have been so many instances in which I've felt hopeless and discouraged. Some examples I can think of off the top of my head are when my best friend was battling substance abuse. He was going through such a hard time, he was spiraling (fast, I might add), and he was addicted to some hard drugs.

I would try everything possible to try to get him to get help, and even reach out to those resources myself, on his behalf. I cannot tell you how hopeless and discouraging of a feeling it is to see someone you love go down that path and not want help. But that's just it, you cannot make someone get help if they don't want it.

I turned to God and realized that all I could do was be there for him and remind him his life was valued and that help was out there, should he want it. Joshua 1:9 was, and is a good reminder that God is with us and to stay strong.

Lonely: Hebrews 13: 5-6

Brittany Creech

"Keep your life free from the love of money. Be satisfied with what you have, for He himself has said I will never leave you or abandon you. Therefore, we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?"

I once went through a breakup that caused me to feel so lonely. I was very much invested in the relationship and was absolutely blindsided by the split. I felt like I had lost my boyfriend and my best friend with no time to brace myself for it (if that would have even made it easier), and it was a rough time.

There are so many Bible verses that reference loneliness and remind us that we're never alone because God will never leave us, and Hebrews 13: 5-6 is a favorite of mine.

Sadness: Luke 6:21

Brittany Creech

"Blessed are you who are now hungry, because you will be filled. Blessed are you who weep now, because you will laugh"

I have been sad on a number of occasions recently, and it's not fun as I'm sure you already know. Luke 6:21 is a wonderful reminder that things will be okay and sad times won't last forever. I think everyone needs to hear that every once in a while, for sure.

God's word has brought me immense amounts of comfort and guidance, and for that, I am so grateful. Hopefully, these verses are able to bring the same to you.
