Me too.
I used to think:
“If G-d is so loving, why doesn’t He just show Himself clearly?”
Here’s a surprising truth:
Kings don’t rule their own children—they nurture them. To truly reign, a king needs subjects who feel separate. G-d’s the same way. He intentionally hides to let us feel independent. Not because He doesn’t care—but precisely because He loves us deeply and desires a relationship.
Feeling overwhelmed or disconnected?
That’s actually part of the design. Your struggle with boundaries or expressing your truth isn’t a flaw. It’s an invitation. G-d wants you to uncover Him right here in this messy, complicated world.
Two easy ways to start:
1. When you’re struggling, pause and remind yourself:
“My challenges are opportunities to reveal G-d right here.”
2. When setting a boundary, remind yourself:
“Boundaries help clarify connection—not break it.”
G-d’s hiddenness isn’t rejection—it’s trust.
He trusts you to find and reveal Him. You’re not disconnected. You’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

The blog lists all the difference patterns to study, understanding patterns is how one can develop 'Daas' [felt knowing].
Update: As awe, trust, and love deepen, they can allow greater openness and intimacy with the Creator. That intimacy can include sadness when you notice how much more of His goodness can be revealed.
