Seek.

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. - Matthew 6:33 NIV

"If God gives such attention to the appearance of wildflowers—most of which are never even seen—don't you think he'll attend to you, take pride in you, do his best for you? What I'm trying to do here is to get you to relax, to not be so preoccupied with getting, so you can respond to God's giving. People who don't know God and the way he works fuss over these things, but you know both God and how he works. Steep your life in God-reality, God-initiative, God-provisions. Don't worry about missing out. You'll find all your everyday human concerns will be met. - Matthew 6:33 The Message
I remember the time when the above verse comes to mind. It was when I thought my family would bankrupt and I was seriously worrying about not being able to stay in college which is much cheaper and convenient in a way and much more fun and livelier despite all the noises and nuisance. I was so worried that I broke down. Then the verse came to mind and I made a decision to just believe it by faith, that God takes care of me and he will provide. He will not leave me homeless. Knowing that it is His will for me to make an impact in my uni and it is rather useless and ineffective if I stayed out and not in the college, I believed that it is God's will for me to stay in college. So I just started to pray according to His will, declaring that I will get to stay in college and because they kept saying that he list for those who appeal to stay in college will only be revealed after the next semester starts, I declared that it will be confirmed much earlier than I expected, that I will definitely get to stay in college. Then I just leave it to God and continued in my preparation for my exams.

And you know it, the results were announced one week before we finish our exams! And my name is top on the list! :D God is good! :)
