I'm wondering how to know when something is God's will for you and when it's just your own thoughts/desires. There have been times when I have been in prayer and then things would come to mind...like maybe that small, still voice, that would seem to be answers to my prayer. More recently there has been an issue on which I am needing to know God's will. So, I've been praying about it alot and just the other day after praying these thoughts came to mind that seem to be answers to the prayer and guidence in this. But, I'm not sure if it is just my own thoughts or desires or if it is actually from God. I then prayed for confirmation and after praying I had a vision. I was awake but still had my eyes closed as I had when I was praying. The vision seemed to go right along with what may have been God's words to me in answer to that prayer.
Anyway, the question I have is: How do you know when something is from God and when it's just your own thoughts and/or desires?
