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.
