You'll know, maybe not immediately, but you will find out sooner then later if that's what he wants you to do. I did that and even though I didn't really want that answer I went to The Lord with that and I knew instantly that it was the right one. When I realized that I started crying because he had answered my prayer and it wasn't the answer I wanted. I was heartbroken about the lord's decision and I doubted that answer after I got done praying.
I thought it was Satan trying to use my doubts and fears against me so I wouldn't end up with what I wanted. But it wasn't until about a week later that I knew it wasn't satan and that it was what The Lord wanted. I just didn't want to accept it because I was heart broken and it wasn't what I wanted.
I learned then that it's never your way, no matter how stubborn you are, it's the lord's way. You can go you're own way, but eventually the lord's going to lead you in the direction he wants you to go. And I learned that it's never on your own time either it's the Lord's time. Everything happens when he wants it to. Not when you want to. I'm grateful that I learned that even though it took me a few times to learn that during the last month or so.
I'm so grateful for the power of prayer. It's not only helped me find answers, but it's also helped me stay calm, peaceful and loved. Every time I pray I always feel my grandparents close to me and the love they have for me wraps around me like a warm soft blanket. I also feel enfolded in the love that my savior has for me and that brings me comfort. I know that without the pray we'd be lost and there would be no way to communicate with our father in heaven. I know that praying is a gift given to us and I will always cherish that because it connects me to my Heavenly Father. At the end of the trail he'll be there waiting for you. Just go to him.
