Loving God is the only proper use of: free-will / lack of God's guidance
Want to make your/others' life(s) better? You don't need free-will for that. God can give proper guidance for that.
Same goes for being good servant to God.
God can control you, theoretically, to make you do these things properly.
I had for long time sincerely wanted God's guidance that what does God want me to do in my life; made tries to get this guidance; but i didn't get it.
Then my goal became to know through direct-experience (enlightenment) that how i can best serve all persons / what's the best service i can do; but God didn't guide me to help me with my logical goal.
Only proper reason i see for lack of God's guidance and for existence of free will is that God wants me to love him.
Imagine having full control over your lover to make them love you, or guiding your lover on how to love you, how frustrating is that! - Love doesn't work like that.
My logic says: God wants me/us to love him; but my deeper/intuitive logic says: Loving God is the only proper use of free-will / lack of God's guidance.

Prepare yourself for the coming astral journey of death by daily riding in the balloon of God-perception.
Through delusion you are perceiving yourself as a bundle of flesh and bones, which at best is a nest of troubles.
Meditate unceasingly, that you may quickly behold yourself as the Infinite Essence, free from every form of misery. ~Paramahansa's Guru's Guru.

This lack of guidance...remember God loves silence....He feels welcomed.

You receive guidance all the time, you just aren't aware of it. Some of your thoughts and impulses are actually guidance.
To consciously receive guidance you have to open a two-way connection using prayer, meditation, self-hypnosis, ...
You can't identify true guidance through an emotional or intellectual approach. For the beginning intuition might help, but you need a direct connection.

Who is god to you, and if Yahweh, have you looked at his genocidal ways and the ways of his homophobic and misogynous religions?
Do you see Yahweh as a good moral teacher?

A connection with one of the vile god's in the mainstream religions, like Yahweh, may not be what he wants, if good morals are what he is trying to learn.

The Apostles creed and belief in Jesus should include nearly all the plethora of Christian and Abrahamic denominations, including Islam.
You may be correct for most Christians have discarded Yahweh for his slightly less genocidal son and thus break the first commandment.

Control is the way of the dark side.
I hope you know what you are doing.
Perhaps you do!
