Very often, we only turn to God in times of trouble or when we need Him; just like during this exam period. During exams, we fervently pray unto Him, spend time with Him, sing Christian songs. However, after exams, the times we spend with Him seem to be less, instead, we will spend time on fun things. Is this human nature? I don't think so. It's just the self-discipline one needs to constantly put the Lord first in all the things he/she does. We need to prioritise Him. Also, remembering Him in all the things we do.
Colossians 3 :23 stated "Whatever yuo do, work it all with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men" Hence, we have to put in mind that as we lead our daily lives, we have to do things for the glory of God, doing all things for Him, and not for the sake of men. It goes the same for our exams. Putting in effort and doing well for the exams for God's glory and when we do well, we have to remind ourselves to stay humble, continue working hard and don't put God aside.
Lastly, let us remeber to abide in the Lord and remain in Him for one can really do nothing without Him. It's true, I've experienced this. "I am the vine, you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in Him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."- John 15:5
Thank you Lord for everything that you've given me and for loving me... I love you Lord!
