One thing is certain, once we give our lives to Jesus, God promises to walk with us through life to coach us along through the voice of the Holy Spirit. However God will take us through trials, uncertainties, discouragements— WHY— Because He wants the very best for us— and the very best is to become like His Son— Jesus Christ.
God is shaping us to take on the characteristics of His family. But keep your eyes on Jesus and the reward we will receive in eternity.
