I'm in love, and heartsick. Can someone give me some encouraging bible verses or something?

I realize I'm only 16, but I still need help. I'm having trouble being happy in life because I like a girl.

Here are a few to start you off...
“Don't let anyone look down on you because you are young, but set an example for the believers in speech, in life, in love, in faith and in purity” (1 Timothy 4:12).

"Young women of Jerusalem, swear to me that you will not awaken love or arouse love before its proper time!" (Song of Solomon 8:4)

“Wait on the LORD; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart; wait, I say, on the LORD!” (Psalm 27:14).

"And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose." (Romans 8:28)

"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. 6In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight." (Proverbs 3:5-6)


There are no quick fixes, but know that God cares and knows what is best for you and wants to help you through this as you trust him. Check out Got Questions links below for further reading. Hang in there, hope this helps. I'm praying for you :)

I KNOW what that's like.

There is no cure but time - trust me on that.

This too shall pass - don't panic.
