Seeking God's will, there are two extremes we must avoid.

There are two extremes we must avoid in the important matter of seeking God's will. One is to be so frightened at making a mistake that we make no decision at all. The other is to make impulsive decisions and rush ahead without taking time to wait on the Lord.
After we have done all we can to determine the leading of the Lord, we must decide and act and leave the rest to the Lord. 
If we are in some way out of His will, He will so work that we will finally have His guidance. The important thing is that we sincerely want to do His will. 
John 7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God or whether I speak of myself.
After all, He guides us "for His name's sake" and its His reputation that's at stake. If you're really sincere in knowing God's will, pray for guidance. He may lead you to scripture.
