A Student's Meditation

The semester is just about 1/3 finished, and I'm already feeling weary. At times like these, I like to reflect on songs from church and verses in the Bible for encouragement. Take My Hand Precious Lord - By T.A. Dorsey Precious Lord, take my hand, Lead me on, help me stand, I am tired, I am weak, I am worn, Through the storm, through the night, Lead me on to the light, Take my hand, precious Lord, Lead me home. When my ways grow drear, Precious Lord linger near, When my life is almost gone, Hear my cry, hear my call, Lead me on lest I fall, Take my hand, precious Lord, Lead me home. Psalm 51:10 Create in me a clean heart, O God, And renew a steadfast spirit within me. Psalm 103:1-5 Bless the LORD, O my soul, And all that is within me, bless His holy name. Bless the LORD, O my soul, And forget none of His benefits; Who pardons all your iniquities, Who heals all your diseases; Who redeems your life from the pit, Who crowns you with lovingkindness and compassion; Who satisfies your years with good things, So that your youth is renewed like the eagle. Also, at this time in the school year, I think teachers could use some prayers of blessing and intercession. This need was brought to my mind by the following text: 2 Thessalonians 1:6 For after all it is only just for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you . . . Hmmm . . . I've got some teachers (and schoolmates) that need to be prayed for a.s.a.p., in that case.
