Do you like taking tests? Do you study and prepare as you get information for a test, or are you one to cram the night or maybe even the morning right before a test? Pennsylvania law requires that third, fifth, eighth, and eleventh grades be tested to make sure the students are on grade level. Because of this law, my son Thomas was taking the PSSA tests last week. He hates doing the public school tests. He is never quite sure if he knows the material being tested. I try to reassure him that all he can do is his best.
As a child of God, are you unsure of your moments of testing?
2 Timothy 2:11-16 says:
"Here is a trustworthy saying:
If we died with Him, we will also live with Him;
if we endure, we will also reign with Him.
If we deny Him, He will also deny us;
if we are faithless, He will remain faithful,
for He cannot deny Himself.
Keep reminding them of these things. Warn them before God against quarreling about words; it is of no value, and only ruins those who listen. Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a workman who does not need to be ashamed and who correctly handles the word of truth. Avoid godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly."
Are you prepared to be tested? When was the last time you studied the Father's word, the Bible? If it is so important to study to prepare for life, how much more important is it to study to prepare yourself and those around you for eternal life?
The LORD bless you with hunger and thirst for the truth of His word.
I love you,
Ruth
