Many professions have robust exams. But taking the Bar Exam seems to be one of the most stressful times in a person's life, occasionally causing physical ailment or emotional breakdown. Our relationship with God can carry us through hectic, nerve-wracking circumstances. We merely have to ask, believe, and receive. This book is a daily motivational devotion for Bar Exam study. Begin your Bar study marathon with day one of your study session, and end on day two or three of your Bar Exam as you finish your final lap. I trust this book will provide three to five minutes of quiet time with God per day, to calm and refresh your heart and mind with the strength to endure your Bar study marathon.
