you should never use church as an excuse for wasting too much time that you can spend on studying. And you should never use studies as an excuse for not coming to church. We are the ones responsible for both, we are responsible for organizing our time and priorities. If you argue that God gave us wisdom,and thus you conclude you should not waste too much time in church, then you should be doing well in your studies and also coming to church. There are many examples of ppl like that, and they do well in school and spend the same amount of time, or more, in church as you. If you have not been wise in organizing your time, dont blame it on the church. No, spending a whole day in church is not much. Ask those who scored straight As in A levels and those who scored single digits for O levels.
If you have grown weary of church, then there is something wrong in your relationship with God. Or perhaps its just another one of those down times. But that doesnt mean you should stay or dwell in your spiritual lows. What draws you to church, keeps you coming to church. Are you very sure of the reason why you come to church? Or does the reason constantly change? Perhaps you are missing the purpose in coming to church. You may know the standard answer to everything, but having the knowledge doesnt necessarily mean you understand it.

For me, there are 3 main reasons why i come to church.
1.God 2.Fellowship 3.To serve
Sum it up and it just means to be with the whole Body, which consists of Christ, the head, and the body, the people, and im the little tiny cell that has a function and part to play:)
You cant seperate the head from the body...
thus considering the matter of priorities...

God does not help lazy people. I have learnt a hard lesson. But it is not too late. The only reason why i did not do well in school was because of pure laziness and poor time management. Last minute revisions does not help much. It has to be constant. Hope i can catch up in my studies soon.
With God, nothing is impossible.
[PRAYERS x WORK = RESULT]
Realize that i did not put a plus sign, but a multiplication sign instead. Indeed God multiplies our efforts.

[Be faithful in little things that God has entrusted to you]
[Do everything without complaining or argueing, so that you may become blameless and pure, children of God]
