Before I enter the exam room,
stop and pray…..
Dear Lord,
I thank you that when I pray
you always listen to me and
hear my prayers.
As my exam approaches,
• set me free from fear
• give me your peace
• help me to
• think clearly
• to remember what I’ve learned
• to use the time well
• to do my best
• and not to worry about the
outcome
because I know that my future is in your hands.
Revd Peter Moger, National Worship Development Officer for the Church of England

Before I enter the exam room,
stop and pray…..
Dear Lord,
I want to do my best to fulfil the potential you have given me.
Help me:
• to stay calm
• to keep things in perspective and be content with the best I can do
on the day
• to look out for my friends who need a bit of encouragement, and
• to always remember that the real test is how closely I can follow in
your way.
Amen.
Rt Revd John Saxbee, Bishop of Lincoln and Chair of the Church of England's Board of Education

Before I enter the exam room,
stop and pray…..
Jesus,
Keep reminding me of the bigger picture over the next few weeks,
Keep me in your hands when all other hands disappear,
For I am convinced that neither entry requirements nor exam results, neither
anticipation nor doubts, neither success nor failure, nor any expectations, neither
last minute fears nor anxieties, nor anything else in life, will be able to separate
us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Please, don’t let me forget it!
Amen
