Prayer Points

Firstly, apologies once again for the lack of posts over the last few weeks. As a way of updating you a bit on what's happening in my life at present, I thought I'd post some prayer points.

Praise points

• Praise God for the baptism yesterday of my niece, Jessica.
• Praise God for the opportunity to celebrate my nephew's second birthday and to spend time with family yesterday.
• Praise God that I survived the Greek exam on Friday and the crazy lead-up to it.
• Praise God for a terrific night's sleep last night - best one in several weeks!
• Praise God for the fabulous friends that he has given me and for their encouragement and support.
• Praise God for sending Jesus to die for us.

Prayer points

• Pray that Jessica will grow up to know Jesus as her Lord and Saviour. Pray that the adults around her will be faithful in telling her of God's love for her.
• Pray that I won't forget to keep on top of my Greek over these next weeks and months so that next year won't be a shock.
• Pray for diligence and the ability to study well for the other exams that are coming up.
• Pray that my studies won't be merely an academic exercise, but that I will be aware that I am dealing with the living word of God, which can change and refine my heart.
• Pray that we students will be gracious and loving with each other as we approach exam time.
• Pray that I will continue to get appropriate rest and refreshment so that I can apply myself well when I am working.
• Pray that I will be able to work out living arrangements for the time of the college holidays (with a minimum of stress).

Thanks for your ongoing support in this area.
