I can't hear the voice of God

A few friends have told me that sometimes when they pray, they can't hear the voice of God.

Here are a few reasons why God's voice can't be heard.

1. Your heart is "noisy"!
     When you are in a state of chaos, it is difficult to hear the voice of God. If there are too many things going on in your mind, then God's voice only becomes one of the noises.

2. You may want to spend more time with God. Are you spending time conversing with God? Do you know the more you talk with someone, the more you can recognize one's voice? It is the same likewise with God. The more you spend time with God, the better you are able to recogize His voice and the clearer you will understand how He speaks.

3. You are only looking for what you want to hear. God may have already spoken to you, but it is contrary to your desire, since it isn't something you are seeking, you categorize the voice as the devil's voice. When you hear something that does not match with your desire, you may refuse to recognize it was God's answer for you.

Face my failure and not run away

I am very good at escaping from reality. When I receive a bad result for assignment or test, I put it away and deliberately ignore it and never really try to sit down and look over what I have done wrong. I am afraid of making mistakes and afraid of accepting negative feedbacks. However, I don't think this will help me to improve, and I will never correct the mistakes I did. My task this week is to be courageous in looking into my mistakes and be corrected and humbly learn my lesson.

Yay! Accomodation in Japan is finally confirmed

I am going on a study exchange in Japan for six months from September and am really excited about it. It took seven months to know whether or not I was accepted. During these few months, it really tested my patience and trust in God. Talking about accomodation, it was indeed very confusing and frustrating. At the end of May, Waseda University opened their online housing questionnaire to all fall semester entry students. However, none of the Melbourne University applicants received any information about it. In fact, for a few months, we didn't hear anything about our application. Not until the 9th June, which was two days before the housing questionnaire deadline did we receive an email about our failure to submit one. The most confusing thing was that we didn't even know whether or not were accepted but the first email we received was about our failure to complete an application. I emailed our exchange coordinator soon after I received the email, but unfortunately she told us s...
