Maryam Amir – When you dont feel prayer but you keep praying

			A woman told me that she's been
praying every single one of her
		

			prayers for 40 years on time, and
there have been very few times
		

			that she's actually tasted such a
sweetness that she's began to cry.
		

			But the majority of the time in 40
years, she prays, and she feels
		

			grounding because of her prayer.
She feels purpose. She feels that
		

			connection with God, but she
doesn't necessarily feel
		

			spiritually euphoric, and that's
really important, because a lot of
		

			people think that simply because
they don't feel anything when they
		

			pray, it means their prayer isn't
good enough, or they wonder what's
		

			wrong with them. They wonder if
there's an issue with their faith.
		

			The fact that you're still
praying, even though you're not
		

			feeling euphoric, is a sign that
you're praying for the sake of
		

			God. You're not worshiping a
feeling. You're worshiping Allah.
		

			So when you don't feel anything,
keep going. It's not a sign of
		

			your lack of faith. It's a sign of
the strength of your faith.
