MARKS, GRADES, ACADEMICS
it’s been an EXTREMELY stressful time for me right now since exams are coming up and it’s my grade 12 years, so marks MATTER. Almost every assignment/test i’ve had in chemistry hasn’t been great, and it’s continuing to drop, with almost no hope of bringing it back up! the difficulty in that class increased greatly, yet i’m like at arm’s reach for my dream mark in that course and i can’t get it. and with everything else happening around me i have to juggle (ie. job, church volunteering, fellowship planning, meetings, etc) it’s really hard for me!
marks are depressing with the pressure of maintaining a high average :(
EDIT: And now I got my bio test back. I REALLY thought I did well and I knew all my material and such, and now? it dropped my mark dramatically. I’m even farther away from my goal than I wanted and I can’t believe it… my self esteem is really low now….

UNIVERSITYYYY
so it’s that time of the year again and I’ve been so stressed about university. My marks aren’t that high compared to the other people applying for the program and i’m so stressed. Also i’ve been also thinking about where all the money is gong to come from. ALSOOO I’m so freaked that if i do go to university, will my parents and sister be okay? What if they get into an accident or something
I’ve been trying my best to just trust in the Lord, BUT IT’S SO HARD
But i am, slowly
BUT SOMETIMES IT’S SO HARDDD :(

1 Peter 3:3-4 and Galatians 1:10
Joyce: A lot has been going on for me lately, and only today, after talking with a friend have I really understood these verses.
I’ve been a little guilty for not going to a school-fellowship based event, and I felt a little guilt-tripped by some people into going. I knew my heart wouldn’t be there after, but I felt bad not going because I had work to do, and felt as though I wasn’t putting God first.
I prayed, I contemplated and in the end I went to one of my close friends. So I asked him for advice and what he said to me was: You shouldn’t need to feel guilty just because you’re not going. Why do you need other people’s approval to show that you’re a good christian? Just because you’re not going doesn’t mean you’re bad, and as long as your relationship with Christ is still strong, then it’s okay. God answered my prayer!!!
True beauty doesn’t come from your outward appearance, but it is your unfading beauty that is beautiful in God’s eyes. You don’t need someone else’s approval to show that you’re a good Christian, or to at the very least judge your relationship with Him. It’s impossible to go to EVERY christian event, and God understands when you can not go sometimes. God knows.
