College is often thought of as a new chapter where you’re suddenly supposed to have it all. Good grades are expected and needed for graduate school. A social life is wanted to keep sanity. Your future profession is supposed to be right in sight. All the while, this crazy thing we know as "life" sometimes comes into play.

Though college is often viewed as some of the most wonderful times one will experience, it is too trying. Despite the many support systems we surround ourselves with, one can still have the overwhelming feeling of stress and loneliness. It is during these times we turn to God.

Throughout the Bible, we are given opportunities for challenge and to grow as a child of God. We are able to overcome whatever obstacle we may face just by the power of His word. These words are precious gifts that are able to lift us up on our darkest of days. It is our decision to allow those words to become more than just words on paper; allow them to become a foundation.

Though these verses may not solve every issue we may face, they are able to give us light at the end of the tunnel.
