WHY I SHOULD STUDY by daniel chow

By studying, I am undergoing part of God's training/test for my development and growth in life. A stretched mind will never go back to its original state.
What I learn is NOT the most important. What I become is.
The heart of education should be for the education of the heart.

By studying, I begin to realise that I am capable of excelling and becoming very good at certain subjects. I began to realise the strengths that God has given to me and become thankful for them. I am also able to become a blessing to others by sharing my area of expertise. I begin to experience the joy of giving. (Acts 20:35)
By studying, I also realise that I am incapable of doing well in other subjects. I begin to realise that I am weak and incomplete and I need His grace to be made perfect in my weakness.(2 Corinthians 12:9)

I begin to depend on Him more and give Him glory and credits for what I achieve. I am humbled by failures and matured by learning to handle failures and disappointments with Him and through Him. I learn to be thankful for all circumstances (1 Thessalonians 5:18) and I begin to realise that God causes all things (including difficult subjects/disappointing results) to work together for my good. (Romans 8:28)

I have the opportunities to cry out to Him even more and thus am able to experience His comfort so that I can comfort others as well. (2 Corinthians 1:3-4)By studying, I please God by fulfilling 2 commandments in the Bible in relation to my parents.
Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right (Ephesians 6:1) and Honour your father and mother, which is a commandment with a promise: that I will live a long and full life on earth. (Deuteronomy 20:12)

If I do well, I honour them with my grades. Even if I don't, I would have fulfilled what is required of me and I am accountable to them and to God. I will also minimize the chance of becoming a financial and emotional burden to others when I grow up as I will be able to find a job more easily and be able to support them and myself and to start my own family. (1 Timothy 5:8)

If I study correctly, By having a daily dose of manageable learning, application and revision ^ By thinking through, questioning and understanding what is presented^ By remaining curious to learnI will eventually become an effective person having diligence, self discipline, determination and a desire to learn. My mind will develop fuller in terms of thinking and reasoning. This is crucial for better understanding of the objective evidences of my faith (aka Christian apologetics) and thus enables me to strengthen my faith further as I become ready to give an answer to anyone who asks of my Christian hope. (1 Peter 3:15)

Dear Lord Jesus, I commit myself to study for the above reasons. I ask of you to grant me the ability to concentrate and be focused during my studies. I ask of you to lead me in understanding my subjects and in finding help from others. I want to depend on You fully while I am studying and I want to experience your joy and peace throughout my studies. Thank you for this stage of life where I may grow. May all glory be upon You. Amen.

END...

hope this helps and hope those who had done badly(like me) 4 mye can stand up and move on.
yar..thats all..lean on the Lord.
God Bless and goodbye.
