Why is it a tragedy to lose a sense of God's presence?

Answered in 1 source

Losing a sense of God's presence can lead to spiritual ruin, as shown in Saul's life when he ignored God's commands.

Saul's life serves as a poignant example of the tragedy that comes from rejecting God's presence and authority. Initially blessed with divine favor, Saul later strayed from God's commands, leading to his rejection as king (1 Samuel 15:26). The loss of God's presence results in moral and spiritual decay, often culminating in despair and destruction. For Christians, staying attuned to God's voice and presence is essential, as it fosters a life of obedience and joy, protecting against the moral pitfalls that arise from self-reliance.
