Unfailing,

Dear God,
Thank you that we can do all things through Christ.
I pray that you will be with us throughout this time of preparation for our exams.
Help us to focus when we are studying, and keep us from being distracted. Give us the energy and stamina to wade through every topic, remembering every fact along the way.
Please guide us through every paper we sit for. Empower us with wisdom and clarity that we may understand each question.
Most of all, may we give You glory, no matter what grades we get.
I pray that through these exams, you'll make us stronger and we'll glorify Your name in what we do.

I especially pray for her.
Help her understand that You have a plan for her life.
Help her set her goals, help her work towards them, and help her discover that her future lies in You.

I especially pray for her.
Allow her to see that she is who You say she is and not who others say she is.

In Jesus' Name,
Amen.

exam blues!

The Lord is my shepherd, i shall not flunk
He keepeth me from lying down when i should be studying
He leadeth me beside the water cooler for a study break
he restoreth my faith in study guides
he leads me to better study habits for my grades' sake
yeah, though i walk through the valley of borderline grades, i will not have a nervous breakdown
for thou art with me
my prayers and my friends, they comfort me
thou givest me answers in moments of blankness
though anointest my head with understanding
my test paper runneth with questions i recognise
surely passing grades and flying colours will follow me all the days of my exams
and i shall not have to dwell in this exam hall forever.
