Christ is Risen! Happy Easter everyone. My name is Paul and I am new to this message board.
I was wondering if everyone could pray for me especially for my doctoral studies. I was having trouble with my viva (oral defense) and after initially wanting to pass me after a re-sit, they no longer do. There were issues with the examiners and other policy violations and the appeal has not yet been heard. I am hoping they override the examiners and award me the degree subject to some corrections/amendments. They are also due to close the department in June.
Thank You and God Bless. Parobek82

parobek82 St. Basil the Great of Caesarea was a very learned man and an eloquent orator. While defending the Church against various heresies, he confronted much opposition. He was declared a Doctor of the Church after his death in 379. The following prayer of his might be useful in your situation to seeks God's guidance and strength. I realize that you are a well educated individual and may already know about St. Basil but that is who came to my mind when I read your prayer request. Be open to God's will for the course your life is to take. I will be praying for you. "Steer the ship of my life, good Lord, to your quiet harbour, where I can be safe from the storms of sin and conflict. Show me the course I should take. Renew in me the gift of discernment, so that I can always see the right direction in which I should go. And give me the strength and the courage to choose the right course, even when the sea is rough and the waves are high, knowing that through enduring hardship and danger, in your name, we shall find comfort and peace. Amen."

Father please watch over Paul and allow him to thrive in his field of study. May the examiners award him and allow him to have a strong future where he may use his gifts to help others. In your name, Jesus amen!
