A Christian's Survival guide on any College Campus The new and unknown give rise to legitimate anxiety. Emotional problems also arise from isolation or loneliness. Even the more mature get homesick for parents and familiar surroundings or a girl or boy friend left behind. Then, too, the campus may seem very impersonal. "No one really seems to care", you might hear a college student say, "I'm just ... nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, or anything else in all creation shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:38,39). The Apostle Paul had faced many crises: affliction, hardship, calamities, beatings, imprisonment's, labors and hunger. The qualities that enabled him to overcome those crises he listed as purity, knowledge, forbearance, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love, truthful speech, the power of God and righteousness (II Corinthians 6:4-10).
