Strong emotions and deep feelings, or seeking after signs, can be more dangerous than helpful. Your imagination is sure to run away with you. God will lead you if you will be faithful to come before Him quietly. Remember, your life is hidden with Christ in God (Colossians 3:3). Eat of Him and His word. Put advancing God’s Kingdom before yourself and the world and your unholy desires will begin to be transformed.
There is no deeper trust of yourself than knowing that you trust God completely. The point of trusting God is not to do great things that you can feel good about, but to trust God from a place of deep weakness. If you've actually trusted God with something -- you will not think about the matter any longer, nor will you feel a lack of peace. 2 Corinthians 12:9 - "I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me."
God wants that which you dread giving Him. It is Isaac, the well-beloved, that He wants you to give up. What He is after is what comes between you and Him. He will not rest, and neither will you until you have given Him everything. Matthew 10:37 - "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me."
When your imagination is too active it will eat you up! Your inward life will die of starvation. All that buzzing in your mind is like bees in a beehive. If you excite your thoughts, they will grow angry and sting you! Be quiet and you will hear God speak. Live in the peace of Jesus.
