Good morning Bitachon of the day 💗
Just before you were born, the malach (Angel) struck you on the mouth, causing you to forget everything you learned in the womb. They are telling us that while in the womb we learned the whole Torah.
Two obvious questions arise:
Why does the malach make you forget what you’ve learned?
And more importantly, if the malach is going to cause you to forget it, why even teach it to you in the first place?
The goal of life is to come into this world and rebuild all that you experienced and your job in this world is not to create yourself, but rather to recreate yourself, to re-attain your original state of perfection, as you were shown by the malach. This time, however, it must be done through free will, by choosing to become great. Only by overcoming challenge and difficulty, only by asserting your willpower, can you fulfill your true potential. In essence, our entire life is a story of teshuvah, returning to our original, higher, true self.
As I grew up completely secular, encountering religion stirred something within me. It sparked a journey to discover my true self, fueled by a profound thirst for knowledge. My soul seemed to be searching for what the angel taught me in the womb.
Currently, I observe a similar movement to what I felt when I embraced religion. There's a surge in daily learning through WhatsApp groups, reflecting a collective thirst for a deeper connection with Hashem. I'm part of at least six Tehillim chats for Refua Shlema now, compared to just one before that we were and are praying for everyone, not someone specific.
The angels are sending us abundant energy to strengthen our connection and rediscover our true selves. Both the observant and the less observant are reviving their connection to Hashem. Collectively, after the war began, we all committed to choose to become great.
It's incredible that during such a tragedy, everyone has turned to feel a connection and cry out to Hashem for help. That's true Bitachon in Hashem. It was hidden deep inside us, learned in our womb; we just need a push to begin the journey of Teshuvah.
No one has an answer as to why Hashem allowed this for our nation—our own brothers and sisters—or why we're reliving the significant antisemitism we thought was lost since the Holocaust. Yet, it's clear that everyone has taken a major step towards Teshuva and becoming better individuals in their connection with Hashem.
May we persist in choosing greatness and better serving Hashem. Amen. 🙏
Wish you a wonderful day 💗
