PRAYER BEFORE THE EXAMINATON

Student nurses will be taking their Prelim Examination this week. Hope this prayer guide you and give you the power to get through it easily.

Loving Father,

Source of all wisdom,

help me to use my time

and my intelligence wisely

as I prepare for my exams.



Help me to dispose myself

to listen to Your Holy Spirit,

so that You, as my Loving Father,

may place me in a state of prayer

and lead me to understand

that the supreme wisdom

is knowing I am Your child.



Help me to remain serene

so that my work may truly reflect

this profound truth.



Mary, Mother of my spiritual life,

guide me in the ways of your Son,

so that my work may help

to transform this world for His glory.



Amen.
