I was only 8 points away from passing the 2nd part of the PLT:K-6 exam. 8 points. I found out last night and I got so mad at myself. And out of all parts, I failed the essay portion and "aced" the other part. 8 points. Sometimes we practice and focus on the wrong things...studying for this exam we call life. I mean, I studied thinking "yeah, I know all these theories...and this is how the questions are gonna look..." and guess what? I was so wrong.
It reminds me of a few weeks ago. I was reading the Bible real tough and a test came, was totally unprepared for it...and I'm thinking with my natural mind or whatever...but the test required me to think with the spiritual mind. I just about almost failed it because I was still functioning on the logic of this world. So. I have two months to prepare for the next one. I took the first test the end of June. I was so nervous. I asked God to take over my mind. I was so shook, I told him just a couple of points over the required score was fine with me. I didn't just pass...I did exceptionally well! But I was humble when I took it, and better prepared. That spiritual test that crept up on me though?! I was so arrogant...certain that whatever I was reading...was extremely easy to attain. Not so. I guess that's what separates the readers from the doers. God already said what would happen to the proud. He said it many times. Said it for a reason.
Until next time.
