I want you to be happy, but whether or not you feel happy about something I’ve asked you to do isn’t the best indicator of whether or not you’re in My will. Knowing My will is something deeper than emotions. It’s a conviction inside your soul that I have shown you what to do, and that no matter what it feels like or looks like at first, I will help you and be with you.
Knowing My will is based on faith in your ability to hear from Me, faith in My Word, and faith in the godly counsel of others. It’s based on faith that I have a plan for your life beyond what you could ever plan or foresee for yourself.
You need faith that our relationship is like that of a father with his children, and that I know things you don’t know yet, and have a plan for you that is greater than what you can see. If you have this kind of faith, then you’ll be able to seek My will and successfully find it.
