“King David, when faced with a choice between falling into the hands of a human with free choice and falling at the mercy of Hashem, said (Samuel II 24:14) ‘Let us fall into the hand of Hashem, for His mercies are abundant; but let me not fall into human hands.’ King David wanted no dependence whatsoever on people; he placed his entire life in Hashem’s loving hands.

No matter how dismal a particular predicament may seem, when we gird ourselves with complete emuna, lean on Hashem only, and cry out to Him from the inner depths of our soul, Hashem uplifts us far beyond the limitations of nature.” ~ The Garden of Emuna
