KIDDUSH LEVANAH קִדּוּשׁ לְבָנָה :

– PRAYER OF CONCESSION ON FULL MOON

Thus, when one suffers, one draws far from the Creator, since
he naturally becomes hateful of Him who imparts him torments.
Consequently, where one should have loved the Creator, he now
becomes the opposite, for he has come to hate the Creator.
Accordingly, what should one do in order to come to love
the Creator? For that purpose we are granted the remedy of
engaging in Torah and Mitzvot, for the Light in it reforms. There
is Light there, which lets one feel the severity of the state of
separation. And slowly, as one intends to acquire the Light of
Torah, hatred for separation is created in him. He begins to feel
the reason that causes him and his soul to be separated and far
from the Creator.
