That you taste the misery and anguish in disobeying Him, yet abstain from seeking the delight found within obeying Him. ⠀ How can you sense the hollowness in your heart when incessantly delving into trivial speech yet not long for it to be relieved through his remembrance. ⠀ How can you experience the sorrow and agony in attaching your heart to other than Him, yet not seek solace in Him and turn back to Him?". ⠀ And even stranger yet, is that you know that you’re in dire need of Him ﷻ, yet turn away from Him and take part in all that distances you from Him.
