St. Josemaria has taught me how to sanctify my study

I am a postgraduate student studying overseas. I used to be very concerned about my academic results. Getting good marks was my first priority when I was an undergraduate. However after I started my postgraduate study in Australia the change of environment, living style, education style and the standards required by the university made me nervous and I felt under more pressure.
For example in one semester I put a lot of effort into one subject but it turned out that the result was not satisfying. I was even depressed with the result and wondered if my effort was wasted. I prayed to St. Josemaria and he answered me. When I read The Way, St. Josemaria mentioned in the book that 'one hour of study is one hour of prayer'. Then I understood that once I offer my work and study to God all of the effort becomes my prayer to God. The most important part is the process rather than the result. Now every time I study and work I offer it to our Lord and I become more concentrated because I want to offer the best to our Lord. St. Josemaria has been a huge help in teaching me how to sanctify my study letting me to understand the true meaning of study and work.
