When you're feeling overwhelmed — with stress, fear, anxiety or with joy, happiness, or love:

"When my heart is overwhelmed, lead me to The Rock that is higher than I" via Psalm 61:2.


When you need reminder of how much you need Christ to fix your heart and restore your spirit:

"God, create a clean heart in me and renew a steadfast spirit within me" via Psalm 51:10. (Side note: the entire passage of Psalm 51 is something you need to read.)


When you need to realize that all of your goals, achievements, awards, results, influence, grades, love, and mercy are a result from God:

"I no longer live but Christ lives in me" via Galatians 2:20.


When you forget how precious you are in the eyes of Christ:

"You know all about it, Lord. You have encircled me; You have placed Your hand on me. This extraordinary knowledge is beyond me. . . For it was You who created my inward parts; You knit me together in my mother’s womb. I will praise You because I have been remarkably and wonderfully made" via Psalm 139: 5-6, 14. (Another side note, this whole passage is so full of truth that so many people need to hear.)


When you think Christ does not understand your emotions:

"Jesus wept" via John 11:35. (The shortest English verse in the Bible shows us just how much Jesus really does understand.)


When Satan is trying to fill your days, your nights, and your thoughts with fear:

"Greater is He that is in me than he who is in the world" via 1 John 4:4.


When being obedient does not come so easy:

"He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death- even death on a cross" via Philippians 2:8. (Also, remember that this death is one that He did nothing to deserve. He took it upon Himself to take our place: our place on that cross was taken over by His body and His blood so we could live a free life abiding in Christ. Also, I apologize for all of the side notes.)


When you need to simply rest in Christ's love:

"No, in all these things we are more than victorious through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rules, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will have the power to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord" via Romans 8:37b-39.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
