Greetings!
First of all, I would like to thank you for giving this post a chance. It’s my pleasure that you are in this page to read. I am very happy that you were able to find this page considering that there are millions of sites out there that would have caught your attention first.
I am a working student for years now and it’s not easy to do two things at the same time. There are times when I would like to give up my work to pursue my studies but the thought of drowning myself to books, memory aids, and hundred of cases alone makes me feel uncomfortable because, honestly, I am used to it that I cannot live without the other.
The struggle is real. My second degree is very demanding that I need to say NO to important things in life. I have to give up my weekends with my family. My parents are getting older without me on their side, same with my siblings. I have to forgo birthdays, anniversaries, family gatherings, and other happy moments with them. For years, it has been my dilemma. I want to be with them. I want to spend more quality time with them. I want to share stories and laugh with them. But I can’t. And so when emptiness creeps in, I find ways to be happy.
I consider myself blessed because everytime I feel this emptiness, there’s always something that reminds me how great God is. And from there, my heart would be filled with joy that no amount of words could ever describe. It’s as if my heart would explode and my whole being refreshed in ways I could not explain. But I believe that it is God working in me and for me.
Since you too are a student, I want you to feel the same comfort and joy knowing that there’s someone powerful and lovable out there in heaven who’s interested in you.
So here are some of His Words that will surely lift your faith up and will move you to be more confident and more dependent on Him. Enjoy! 🙂

4. James 1:5-6
