D-minus-4 Day

I went to school today (like I have for the past few weeks) to get some studying done, plus I had GP consultation along with Kim. I didn't know Mrs J came from a family of teachers! Must really run in the blood. At the end, she said something like, "So next Monday, please do well."

The moment she said "next Monday", I immediately felt a wave of panic! It's genuinely hard to believe that the all important A levels are so close.

There was a whole commotion at the Oasis because of these people with tonnes of unfolded cardboard boxes in stacks, and I was trying to figure out what they were for. I stupidly even said to Sheryl, "What are they for? So far the people taking them have been scholars. Mostly IP3..."

To which she said, "maybe they're packing?" OF COURSE. They're preparing to move all their stuff to the NJC boarding school, which is almost done by now, I think. Poor things, having to move stuff must be such a hassle.

Anyway, after lunch, I was sitting down trying to study chem, and out of nowhere I started to kind of hyperventilate in my mind about A levels, and my vision was a bit blurry as well. Yet another panic attack! My brain started thinking of all the sub-topics I'm unsure about, such as Cell Structure, Duchess of Malfi, Complex Numbers, Reaction Kinetics etc.

When I got home, the Daily Bread topic was about how large our problems seem to be, unless we put them into perspective.

"Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth ... He gives strength to the weary, and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint." - Isaiah 40:27-31

It also brings to mind what Pastor Albert said on Sunday about worrying, though the context of his sermon was money. "Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?" - Matthew 6:33

What a Friend we have in Jesus, all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit, O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry everything to God in prayer.

Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere?
We should never be discouraged; take it to the Lord in prayer.
Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share?
Jesus knows our every weakness; take it to the Lord in prayer.

Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care?
Precious Savior, still our refuge, take it to the Lord in prayer.
Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer.
In His arms He’ll take and shield thee; thou wilt find a solace there.
