The answer

The believer loves the worship of Allah because He is the perfect Lord, free from any deficiency, and deserving of all worship. Also, because He is the Bestower of immense blessings, and gratitude for these blessings necessitates His worship. What helps in loving worship is contemplating the great reward that Allah has promised, reading the biographies of sincere worshippers and our Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), and persistently supplicating to Allah Almighty, asking Him to instill in you a love for His obedience. Know that your honor lies in humbling yourself before Him, your richness in your need for Him, and your strength in displaying your weakness and poverty to Him. Negative thoughts come from Satan and must be striven against and repelled by ignoring them; they do not harm one's faith.
