The answer is in the Bible. If you have not read it, I recommend you do.

The next big question. What does God want?

For you to manifest what you really want, and choose Him; whether you will resist God, both via rejection of conscience and the degree of revelation provided, (Rm. 1,2) or that, by His grace, you will yield to both, obeying the degree of light one has, which will lead to more light,(Matthew 13:12) and if followed at some point, to The Light, (John 12:35, 36) the Word made flesh, coming to Him with a good and honest (with self and God) heart, seeking the mercy of God which is the Lord Christ, believing in Him with by effectual penitent, heart-purifying, regenerating justifying faith, (Acts 10:43-47, 15:7-9) who sent be the Father to be the Savior of the world. , (1 Jn. 4:14)

Who saves sinners by His sinless shed blood. And which faith is imputed for righteousness, (Romans 4:5) and is shown in baptism and following the Lord, (Acts 2:38-47; Jn. 10:27, 28) whom they shall go to be with or His return (Phil 1:23; 2Cor. 5:8 [“we”]; Heb, 12:22,23; 1Cor. 15:51ff'; 1Thess. 4:17) In contrast to those who were never born of the Spirit or who terminally fall away. (Gal. 5:1-4; Heb. 3:12, 10:25-39) Glory and thanks be to God.

What does God want?

here is the KISS version...

From 1 Thessalonians 5

16 Rejoice always, 17 pray continually, 18 give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.

Or an OT version...

Micah 6:8 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.
