CLD #243

Its raining outside and its "gross," but obviously we can learn something from the rain and Hashem's nature. How does rain "happen?" Well, as we all know its a cycle that is continuous and found throughout the world. It begins from the clouds in the sky acting as vacuums, inhaling the rain. Then Hashem pushes the wind to blow the clouds over land, where at a maximum capacity they open up and let all the water fall back down and the cycle goes on and on. 
The same thing works with Yetziyat Mitzrayim and our day to day lives. We are reminded of Yetziyat Mitzrayim continuously throughout the day. During all the tefillot, Birkat HaMazon, Kiddush, chagim, Shabat, etc., we remind ourselves of Yetziyat Mitzrayim. Sure when we walk outside when its raining we complain and throw on a rain jacket, but whois the one who really contemplates and thinks about the rain understands that beauty behind it. The rain is a symbol of G-d's interference with nature showing how nature is not stable (its not always going to be sunny or cloudy). Even though Yetziyat Mitzrayim is an event that occured in the world causing the entire world to change, it impacts our lives everyday (or at least it should feel that way). With the rain, we do not see the actual water cycle happening, but only see the end result of rain. With Yetziyat Mitzrayim and Am Yisrael and Pesach, Hashem showed the entire world that He is the one in control, throughout the 10 plagues and the whole process of bringing Moshe Rabenu back to Mitzrayim to save the Yehudim. Hashem showed us that we are going to be saved. It rains once in a while and thank G-d water is a blessing, however Yetziyat Mitzrayim unlike rain, is something that we need to input into our hearts everyday that reminds us Hashem loves us. 


B'H this Pesach we'll understand that Yetziyat Mitzrayim is not only a daily reminder we need to put for ourselves of Hashem's love for us, but it is also a time where we ask Hashem to have our own Yetziyat Mitzrayim. If its troubles with a shidduch, money, education, learning Torah, even something as simple as a cut on our finger, this entire world was created for us to get closer to Hashem, the ultimate creator, and understand that whenever we want we can turn to Him and open our hearts to ask for help.
Gematriya Fun fact: The gematriya of Pesach is 613, showing us that one who follows the Mitzvot and Halachot of Pesach is as if one is taking part in all of the Torah. 
CHAG SAMEACH.
