in need and receiving provision

I need the Lord to give me the grace to do my school work... this is difficult already. I am struggling to muster up the motivation to open my books and to read articles. The beginning-of-the-semester excitement that is usually so normal and present during the first couple of weeks is nowhere to be found. Even the things I once was interested in seem unimportant to me now. I really just want to spend time with the Lord, which can't be a bad thing, but does make earning a degree difficult. Or not so much difficult as it is painful. I can tell already that I'm going to need a great deal of the Lord's strength and His unchanging grace to get through this semester. He is pouring it out on me; and I know I will need it consistently for the next few months. School and work are a struggle right now, but the Lord is my great Provider.
