Prayer - it works!

After the IELTS Examination, I felt I’m gonna fail the exam especially in the writing part because I knew ahead the criteria on how they examine the essay. I felt really hopeless, depressed and cold right after completing the whole test. As a matter of fact, it seems I lost my faith to God and I didnt believe in miracles anymore. Worst, I abstained from reading the bible for the whole week because of the exam and took a rebellion against God by committing sins. 

My faith was really tested during that period. I realized that what I did was totally wrong, I forgot that I have a big God and he is my father (Psalms 2). I turned back to reading the Bible immediately and was disciplined by God, he told me in 1 Timothy to clearly”EXAMINE YOUR FAITH if it is really geniune”. I was very embarrased before God that my faith was actually shaken by the exam, my faith was wavering because I have doughts on what God can do to me. 

God is indeed faithful to his promise eventhough I was not faithful to him totally. I always read in Psalms the phrase “HIS LOVE ENDURES FOREVER”. Yes, even for our mistakes God can love us immeasurably. I knew from the bottom of my heart that it wasn’t in my own strenght, knowledge or power to pass my exam but it was all God who worked with me.
