When studying for finals, we usually have a set amount of materials to read and memorize and generally if you follow what the teacher tells you to do, you should succeed. So simple. Yahadut is the same thing.
SO WHY IS IT SO DIFFICULT?
In our society, we know what to do, we've heard it a million times that our Torah is our guideline. This is true, but what is also true is the fact that it so easy to leave the guidelines of our Torah HaKdosha. It is so easy to access the darkest and most spiritually dangerous locations of our world through a single mouse click on our computers. Yetzer Hara knows that his final days are up and Mashiach is coming soon so in recent history he has pushed with all his might to instill this power of opportunity to fall spiritually in all of us (in the end of the day it is our decisions). There has been a huge increase in the separation between the hatred of Da'atiyim and Chilonim in Israel (Sinat Chinam), the Internet has become a necessity in order to live (Gilui Arayot), everything is devalued and we are all desensitized to the truth of our religion: true love, modesty, respect, compassion, and most of all-true happiness. This is the reason that the tiniest positive action by us creates this spiritual tidal wave in our world, from silencing when we want to say Lashon Hara to wearing the skirt that is an inch longer. We do not understand the world we live in because in spiritual terms our world is pitch black. In all honesty, the fact that us Jews still keep the Shabat HaKdosha is incomprehensible to the human mind and shows that our neshamot are no different from neshamot of the Beit HaMikdash, we all need to put more effort.Today is THE opportunity to do Tshuva (its all up to YOU).
Take a minute to think why thousands of Jews have been killed doing Kiddush Hashem.
Does that mean anything to you?
Judaism=Think. Shabat=Reality.
SHABAT SHALOM :D!
Happiness is the Gateway to the Kdusha.
