The Faucet

Posted on October 19, 2018 by Emuna Daily

A Jew is not deficient in sustenance, he may be deficient in his trust of God. From Heaven, there is always an abundance of sustenance being provided for each Jew; however, if one is deficient in trust, then the sustenance does not reach us. Bitachon is like a faucet: when we lack it, the faucet has been closed. ~ Lubavitcher Rebbe

    We need to do our hishtadlus by going to work and trying to make a living, and at the same time, know that in the end, everything comes from Hashem. But furthermore, we need to TRUST that Hashem WILL provide our sustenance. He is not going to less us go hungry. I used the following quote once before:

    The more independent you want to be, the more independent Hashem allows you to be. The more dependent you are on Hashem, the more dependence Hashem allows you to have. ~ R’ Ari Bergmann

    Therefore, I think what they are saying is that we should never worry that Hashem is not going to provide our sustenance. He has until this point and we trust 100% that He will continue to provide our sustenance.

    Thanks for the bracha! Good shabbos!
