A Prayer for Study

If you are in seminary, I know the study sessions and coffee are flowing, and tests and examinations are around the corner. Page counts and word counts abound. There is much to read and remember and rejoice in as well. Or maybe you are preparing a sermon or Bible study and feel overwhelmed; perhaps this prayer from Thomas Aquinas can become your own. These words are a great reminder and example of what to pray as we study. Aquinas takes us Godward—honoring God, depending on God for help, and honoring Christ in our studies.
