Question: I have a feeling that getting closer to the Creator is dangerous because it results in a fear of deep disappointment. At first, the Creator draws you near and you feel close to your friends and to the Creator, but then it becomes very painful when He seemingly pushes you away from Himself. And then you do not want to get close to Him at all. How can this path be evened out?

Answer: Don’t think about yourself; think about pleasing the Creator with your actions.

Question: But that seems unrealistic. If I feel rejected by Him, how can I even think about Him? Should I do it artificially?

Answer: No, not artificially but naturally. Try, and one day it will work out.
