final encouragement

Hey friends...just wanted to take a second in this CRAZY time for all of us college students and give you some biblical encouragement because I believe that it is the truest form of encouragement, the hope we have in Jesus Christ. And it's mostly for me too, not to preach but to encourage ok?

Mark 6:30 "then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them "Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest"".
As most of us are probably not sleeping at all, getting discouraged and stressed, it might help if we try to remember that Jesus is the remedy; he is our resting place
In Matthew 11:28-30 Jesus says "Come to me all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls, for my yoke is easy and my burden is light" ummm...THANK YOU JESUS!
Luke 8:38-39 "The man from whom the demons had gone out begged to go with him, but Jesus sent him away, saying "return home, and tell how much God has done for you" so the man went away and told all over town how much Jesus had done for him.
During finals, its really easy for me to get so caught up in my own little world of pathophysiology and cardiac disruptions and its sometimes really hard to see a way out. and I so often forget to keep praising the Lord for all he has done for me, for giving me the opportunity to study at this school, for cultivating an interest in this material....Philipians 1:3-6 says "I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I will always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ
And finally John 14:1 "Do not let your hearts be troubled, trust in God, trust also in me"
God's gonna get us through this week ok? Please let me know how I can pray for you all.
