So long as you have not contemplated the Creator, you belong to created beings; but when you have contemplated Him, created beings belong to you. [247] As long as man is unable to recognize Allah Himself and His attributes in creation, and the gaze of his heart remains confined to creation, he will remain subservient to creation. Those engrossed in wealth, children and land will remain entrapped in these worldly pursuits. They will be the worshippers of materialism. Those pursuing fame will he subservient to this pursuit. In short, if the pursuit is not Allah Most High, man will remain the slave of whatever he is pursuing. When man recognizes that creation is the substratum for the manifestation of Allahs illumination and all things besides Allah are banished from his mind, then the entire creation becomes subservient to this servant, who, from that moment, gains independence from creation. When creation becomes subservient to man, his love permeates the hearts of others. They all love him while there is no room in his heart for anyone’s love. He remains aloof from everyone and everything besides Allah Most High. Book: The Book Of Wisdom by Shaykh Ibn Ataillah al-Iskandari (may Allah sanctify his secret.)

"For a spiritual light to settle in the heart, the darkness of illusions must be dispelled. When the diseased one has repented of his futility, then he may progress to a stage where he is endowed with the ability to understand divine mysteries."

When He gives, He shows you His Kindness, when He deprives, He shows you His Power. And in all that, He is making Himself known to you and coming to you with His gentleness.
