let this speak for itself
[9:29:08 AM] mel says: D.
[9:29:37 AM] mel says: could you pray for me?
[9:31:00 AM] mel says: that's fine...just pray for me that i hear from God and know what He wants me to do...seems a bit blique at the moment
[9:31:08 AM] Bwana vola says: what's up?
[9:31:50 AM] Bwana vola says: what is the problem?
[9:32:37 AM] mel says: i guess i need a whole lot positive energy interms of what is going to happen after graduation...so please pray that i hang inthere and hear what God wants me to do. i've thought a couple of times about applying to australia too but i don't feel that's what He wants me to do
[9:32:42 AM] mel says: so i just need some clarity...
[9:37:05 AM] Bwana vola says: …Mel, read Habakuk 2:2-3 and hang in there. God wants to have our hope in Him only and not in anxiety. He has already shown you several options and you need to wait for His guidance on that. Where the Holy Spirit prompts to write to 0other universities to find out the outcome of ur application - I believe it does not hurt - You could as well call to find out the status in a systematic way. Trust in Him and do not waver!!! That is how I operate today. I will come back to you in 3 mins.
[10:10:10 AM] Bwana vola says: Are you there?
[10:11:19 AM] mel says: YES I AM
[10:11:24 AM] mel says: sorry
[10:11:29 AM] mel says: the capslock was on
[10:12:20 AM] mel says: hi D.?
[10:13:50 AM] Bwana volasays: I was talking to M.
[10:14:02 AM] mel says: how is she?
[10:14:30 AM] Bwana volasays: she is fine and will send you email
[10:14:45 AM] mel says: alright...are you going home now?
[10:15:48 AM] Bwana vola says: Almost but finalizing some work - Lets try sort out the issue of Skype also. Whats your reaction about my stand on God only?
[10:16:21 AM] mel says: your stand on God only? as in leaving everything to God?
[10:16:49 AM] Bwana vola says: Yes with our own efforts as wel;l
[10:17:41 AM] mel says: what do you define as "your own efforts"? doing stuff when we hear from God or just going ahead and doing what we feel is right and hoping that He'll direct us
[10:18:19 AM] mel says: because i'm scared of doing stuff which i don't think i'm supposed to do
[10:19:36 AM] Bwana vola says: Mel you have to commit all to Him and wait to hear from Him with all your hope in Him. Read Isaiah 49 and Psalm 25 which say that those who hope in Him shall not be disappointed nor put to shame.
[10:19:58 AM] mel says: but what do i do in the meantime?
[10:20:08 AM] mel says: shouldn't i act on something? or should i just be patient?
[10:21:15 AM] Bwana vola says: Thank Him for His Faithfulness knowing that He that promises you that He will provide for whatsoever you ask in His name believing will do answer your request.
[10:22:10 AM] mel says: please pray for me...for clarity

[10:51:00 AM] Bwana vola says: Mel if you really trust in God you will never waiver or be anxious - I know it is not easy but I am happy that I have reached that level of confidence that I will NEVER TURN BACK to the old days!!!
