'For I know the plans I have for you', says The Lord. Plans to prosper you and not harm you; plans to give you hope and a future'

At the times that I struggle the most, this verse speaks to me the loudest. It is the Almighty God Himself, talking to His children. How comforting is that?

He tells us in this verse that He has our future in His hands, that He has it figured out. He has had it figured out since before we were in our mother's womb, before we were even thought of.

Isn't it amazing that we could be loved THAT much? That we were hand picked by Him, to do certain things, for Him?

This verse is much more than the scripture itself. It is a little piece of encouragement that can get me through my darkest days and rainiest storms.

When you fail your test, God has a plan.

When you don't get accepted into that college, God has a plan.

When you don't get that job you thought you wanted, God has a plan.

He has a plan for all parts of your life.

The plans He has for you will give you complete hope and a future.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
