How do you know if you’re doing Gods will/obeying him?

Obviously, the Commandments outline gods will practically and ( loving your neighbor, putting your trust in God, not following the ways of the world, forgiving people, etc., etc)

However, I’ve been feeling the Holy Spirit convict me to let go of my plans and to embrace his. I don’t even know how to do that because the second I tried doing it I feel like I’m back to where I started, despite trying my best to follow all the basic things laid out in the bible and asking Him

The more I tried to let go the more I feel like I’m embracing a void in my life. I stopped listening to secular music and going to shows. (i’m a musician), for example. I don’t eat out much anymore and cook cheap food at home. But now I go to bed early now get up in the morning feeling so bored.

Before you tell me I need to use that time to spend it with Him, I pray, read his word every day sincerely, and go to church

I don’t really wanna live like this anymore because now I just feel empty inside. And I’m afraid that if I disobey, I won’t be doing the will of God, but I don’t even know what that means. Ugh
