The Vehicle of Growth

Tefillah is more than the words we say. 

It is the vehicle Hashem gave us to carry us from one spiritual level to the next.

The Greatest Song

The angels praise Hashem. 

The souls of the tzaddikim praise Hashem. 

Yet the highest praise comes from the Jew who finds Hashem and sings to Him while living in this world.

The Window of the Heart

The sun never stops shining. 

When its light doesn’t reach us, it’s the window that needs cleaning. 

Hashem’s light is no different. 

Tefillah cleans the window of our hearts, allowing His light and blessings to shine into our lives.

The Greatness of Shabbos

Never underestimate the power of a mitzvah on Shabbos.

“One daf of Gemara learned on Shabbos is equivalent to 500 pages learned during the week.

One chapter of Tehillim recited on Shabbos is equivalent to 500 chapters recited on a weekday.”

The Foundation of Success

One becomes successful when he realizes that all goodness and success are from Hashem, not by chance and not by the strength of his hands.

Hashem’s Silent Message

People communicate through speech, writing, or messages.

But Hashem has another way.

He can place a thought, an idea, or a desire directly into a person’s heart.

Often, a person thinks it was his own idea.

In reality, it was Hashem communicating with him.

~ Based on the Chofetz Chaim (Shem Olam, Shaar Shmiras Shabbos 3)

What Sustains a Person? 

When a person has no parnassah, I understand how he lives — through Emunah and Bitachon

But I don’t understand how a person who has all that he needs lives!

The Richest and Happiest Person 

No one in the world is wealthier than one who studies Shaar HaBitachon (in Chovos Halevovos).  

And no one is happier than someone who has faith.

The Day the Manna Didn’t Fall

The manna fell almost every day in the desert, even on the day of the Golden Calf.

Yet on the day Korach sparked a machlokes, it did not fall.

The Shevet Mussar explains that this teaches us a startling lesson: machlokes is even more destructive than avodah zarah.

While idolatry separates a person from Hashem, machlokes separates Hashem’s children from one another.

The Real Question 

Machlokes begins when proving you’re right becomes more important than preserving what’s right. 

Before speaking, ask yourself: Am I seeking the truth, or am I seeking to win?
