It's the end of another term for those who study in Nottingham Uni. Time flies huh.
Before we know it, we'll be having our exams soon, then summer, and then we'll all go our separate ways again, for the next 3-4 months at least.
Feels quite surreal, quite unreal.
Thrown out of our usual busy and routine schedule, can make us feel quite disorientated and lost... i speak for myself.
But whatever we are doing this Easter holidays, let us involve and acknowledge God in everything we do - in our leisure time, studies or work. Let us not be complacent with our walks with God, God doesn't ever go on 'holiday' and we shouldn't take a 'break' from God as well! Sometimes it takes self-discipline and a conscious effort to spend time with God, to read His word and pray. But these disciplines are really necessary to keep us walking with our Father.
Even as the prospect of the exams in May, i understand some of us may be feeling anxious and worried about it, especially if we haven't been as conscientious as we should have been during term and have lots to catch up on.
Well, don't panic k! Worry won't help either... draw up a plan, get started and do what you can! Above all, commit your studies and plans to the LORD. Ask Him for what you need, and then do what you have to do believing He provides for His children and watches over us. Ultimately, we want to be good stewards of our studies and to bring Him glory in the way we study!
Do Not Worry
25"Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
28"And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
