Prayer of a Student

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He makes me lie down in green pastures.

He leads me beside still waters.

He restores my soul.

He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil, for you are with me;

your rod and your staff, they comfort me.

 

Dear Lord, I thank you that my value is not based on my performance in assessment tasks, but on your great love for me.

Come into my heart so that we can walk through this time together.

Help me, not only with the tasks at hand, but the many tests of life that are sure to come my way.

 

Help me to remain focused and calm, confident in my ability and firm in the knowledge that no matter what happens today you are there with me.  Amen
