"Do not murmur, my son, for it is wisdom in me that I have dealt with you after this manner. Behold, you have not understood; you have supposed that I would give it unto you, when you took no thought save it was to ask me. But, behold, I say unto you, that you must study it out in your mind; then you must ask me if it be right, and if it is right I will cause that your bosom shall burn within you; therefore, you shall feel that it is right. But if it be not right you shall have no such feelings, but you shall have a stupor of thought that shall cause you to forget the thing which is wrong." (D&C 9)

I wonder if what is being taught here, is not so much "it is my will that you do such and such" as much as it is you discovering what is right for you at the time. If you watch people of other religions or even oppressive cults, they also get the "burning in the bosom" that confirms to them their decision. What if it's not so much the right thing to do, as it is, this is the right experience for you to have right now. If you're passionate about doing [this], then pursue it, explore it, find out about it, without fear. Use my gift of agency to you to discover life to learn the good and the bad.

"I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth." (Revelation 3)

It would seem that the worse sin to doing something, even if choice is wrong, is doing nothing, or equivocating, or being afraid live and throwing away, unimproved, the gift of life we have been given. Be like a child, live!

Maybe this is part of what the Lord had in mind when He said: "For behold, it is not meet that I should command in all things; for he that is compelled in all things, the same is a slothful and not a wise servant; wherefore he receiveth no reward. Verily I say, men should be anxiously engaged in a good cause, and do many things of their own free will, and bring to pass much righteousness; For the power is in them, wherein they are agents unto themselves. And inasmuch as men do good they shall in nowise lose their reward. But he that doeth not anything until he is commanded, and receiveth a commandment with doubtful heart, and keepeth it with slothfulness, the same is damned." (D&C 58)
