Love is an attitude, love is a prayer,
For a soul in sorrow, a heart in despair;
Love is good will for the gain of another,
Love suffers long with the fault of a brother

Postage to Heaven
Dear God,
2nd November lurks around the corner, signaling the arrival of the inevitable A levels. To say that I am fully confident is a lie. Lord, I feel scared, scared that I would not do well for the As. I feel frightened at the possibility of failure, which seems very realistic for now. I feel disappointed at myself for not putting in sufficient effort during the course of this 2 years.
I'm scared...I'm scared.. Lord...
Then again, Lord, you gave me your word through Paul in the words of Philippians. "Forgetting what is behind and straining towards what is ahead.." Indeed, Father, help me to cast aside all that have passed and instead stay focus onto my goals straight ahead, which is the A levels at the moment. "Let your eyes look straight ahead, fix your gaze directly before you. prov 3:25"
Lord, thank you for giving me friends who encouraged me during the trough of a sine function of my life. I now know that friends aren't only fellow acquaintances but a safety net which you can trust when you fall as you climb the ladder. They say "behind every successful man is a loving woman", but I say "before you're married, at the back of every successful man is an arsenal of caring friends".
But of course Lord, the bestest best friend one could ever ask for is you, Lord Jesus. You're my comforter when I am down, You are my strength when I am weak, You are my provider when everything seems to be depleted. Lord you said "Cast all your anxiety on you because you care for me" (1 peter 5:7 paraphrases).
Heavenly Father, that is exactly what I will do.
Lord, grant me peace of mind and a calm heart...for you care for me....
yours faithfully,
JT
