"I'm a college student; I have no life" is a common cliche` for many, including myself. However, I'm afraid that the value of education may well be overlooked. How many times have we procrastinated in our school work? Can we count how many times we have not put forth our absolute, unwaivering best effort into our homework? As God's Word says, "And whatever you do, whether in word or in deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him." (Col. 3:17, NIV)
I wonder how many people out there would give their right arm for what we've been so freely granted? We are to give thanks in all situations, but this mid-semester season, as the homework load just seems to get heavier and heavier, let us rejoice that God has given us the freedom and the opportunity to expand our minds. Yes, the load may be heavy; yes, perhaps we miss out on fun activities right now. But this is only for a season! Let us make a habbit of always doing our very best, no matter
how routine, frusterating, or difficult the matter may seem!
