Shavuatov Bitachon of the day ❤️
What is the Jewish perspective on the goal of life? Do we limit ourselves to our own individual happiness, or should we be
striving for something even deeper and greater?
Hashem created an imperfect world full of imperfect human beings, giving us the mission to achieve perfection.
We can never know Hashem Himself; we can only know how He relates to and appears to us.
Today has been another harrowing day for Israel. My daughter and her entire group ended up in a shelter for hours. When I checked my phone after Shabbat, there were numerous missed calls and texts from people worried about her. Then, we received videos from her and her friends heading to the shelter and staying in the shelter, all singing, laughing, and happy. Despite the situation, they remained unafraid and made the best of it.
When I watched the video clips, all I saw was happiness. No one appeared scared; instead, everyone sang Jewish songs and praised Hashem.
The videos demonstrated how the Jewish people respond even in extremely dangerous situations. We turn it into a positive experience and rise above the horrors occurring in the present. Throughout history, we have faced persecution and attempts at extermination, and today is no different. Yet, with joy (Simcha) and Hashem's help, no one will ever be able to remove us, we will always endure. Amen. 🙏
We can never fully know Hashem Himself, as He is infinite and entirely beyond our comprehension. However, we can come to know Hashem by understanding how He reveals Himself to us, through His creations, the physical world, and His Torah, which unveils His will and thoughts.
The only way we can continue to fight against all evil and defeat our enemies is by having faith in Hashem. Our survival is solely because Hashem has been with us throughout our journey, in both good and challenging times. In these moments, we must praise Hashem and always remember His deeds for us across generations. Now, more than ever, we must pray, perform Mitzvot, learn, and stay connected to Hashem.
Hashem is with us and will always remain by our side. May we all pray, learn, and perform good deeds in His praise, seeking salvation. Amen. 🙏
Wishing you all a wonderful day ❤️
