the following is fairly deep but worth the read, i promise...

"Strong emotions and deep feelings, or seeking after signs, can be more dangerous than helpful...God will lead you, almost without your knowing it, if you will be faithful to come before Him quietly. Eat of Him and His word. For if you love Him, everything else will work out. I am not asking you for a tender and emotional love, but simply that you lean toward love. Put God before yourself and the world and even your evil desires will begin to be transformed."
