It always sounds like the Way of Love

When we hear the Holy Spirit, it always sounds like the “way of love.”  Note that these verses follow the “Ask, Seek, Knock” sequence that procures good things/Holy Spirit/wisdom:

“So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets. “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. (Matthew 7:12-14 ESV)

As you ask what to do or what to say regarding circumstances and situations at hand, the Holy Spirit will supply you with wisdom/discernment to deal with it.  It is very unlikely that you will know all of the circumstances and factors contributing to the situation for which you are seeking wisdom, so what you hear or are led to do may surprise you.  God's loving acts encompass a wide range of forms. Remember to trust that God most definitely wants to speak to you and that it will likely be through your thinking.
